This is feedback I received from this article by Bill Dudleston of Legacy Audio who gave me permission to post in this thread:

I am in Tampa Florida. They are almost 5 years old but I can't imagine getting the amp fixed would cost more than $1-200 tops. Well worth it.

MSRP: $3500/pair Asking Price: $950/pair I am selling a pair of Emotiva XPR-1 1kwatt monoblock amplifiers that are physically in great shape. This is the best, most powerful amplifier Emotiva has made to date. One of the XPR-1s works 100% flawlessly while the other stopped turning on recently...

I think Michael Fremer actually believes the spew that comes out of his mouth and it's entertaining while also frustrating to hear such nonsense. What makes it even less palatable is over sense of self-importance. Though if you're going to discard everything a magazine says just bc of one...

One of the most important conclusions we took away from CES 2018, is that true wireless hi-fi has finally coming of age. Vendors have demonstrated new audio products using aptX HD and LDAC codecs, these are the high-resolution options we’ve been waiting for. Wireless audio over Bluetooth can be...

I plan on getting in a pair of LSR 306 mkII to compare. I heard from others that these do compare favorably to the LSR 305s but haven't done a direct comparison myself. IN my large room they just don't get quite loud enough or have enough bass which is to be expected. They do work best as a...

A great article here that answers those questions and more: https://www.cnet.com/news/why-all-hdmi-cables-are-the-same/
