    Cool RESPECT (for 249$)

    Receiver owners have never gotten much respect from owners of high end
    audio, save the occasional NAD, Concert , or maybe a 5,000 Denon.
    And for good reason, BEST BUY is selling a Pioneer receiver , 110wx5,
    for 299 BUCKS.
    Thats HTIB territory.
    Of course theres better, spend a grand and you can get a pretty decent receiver,
    and it will do mostly what you need.
    However , now you can supercharge your front two channels for 249 bucks with a two channel amp from Emotiva.
    Wil you get any respect? Maybe not... BUT YOU WONT CARE.
    This amp is a goodie, all you need is a receiver with a decent preamp, and a decent pair of speakers, and you're ready to go.
    With most of the local hi-fi sources folding up, its been awhile since I have even auditioned
    a decent amp, so the Emotiva was a pleasant surprize.
    Audio nirvanah for 249$.
    I LIKE STEREO BASS, (yes it does exist) and with the Emo the bass from my fronts are tight, response is fast,, and the Natilus tweeters on my B&W'S sound like Angels
    singing.
    Results weren't as good on four ohm Axioms, might give them another try, but A-B-ing
    these monsters is difficult.
    With todays production methods there is no reason for a decent two channel amp to cost
    north of five hundred bucks(Adcom had one for 750$).
    Will a more expensive amp sound better? thats in the ear of the beholder.
    I say not enough (.00000001%) to matter.
    So there is relief for those who can never seem to get the scratch together for decent gear.
    There is no excuse now.
    A plus is that HT rocks also, your system will sound better all around, and you will get
    the best of both worlds , a decent audio system and a decent HT system.
    Will you finally get some "respect"?
    Again, WHO CARES?
    This amp is sweet.
    Cant miss. I was a scoffer when I saw this company with its cheapjack prices , but brothers and sisters, after two weeks or so of toe curling musical heaven,
    I BELEIVE.
    Get one of these.
    NOW.
