Just bought the XPA-3--Great Amp, the sale ends the end of this month, only a couple days left of the sale!

"Write two checks" ... LOL!

This sale must be a result of the economy tanking.
Even my monkey is getting a little freaked out.

$449

That price would be a good deal? better check that one.

It's actually $499 for the XPA-3
and its ..... $549 for the UPA-7

I'm not like a fan of Emotiva or nothin' but if I wanted to take a dump on their efforts to make a go of it as a company in a public forum, I would get my act together enough to at least deliver a two part one liner accurately.

So why does the first post from the admin say that they are $449? The website agrees with Alex.

I'm asking because I'm wondering if there is a deal for AH members that I didn't notice, and others here might want to take advantage of that.

Wow, no love here... Is $549 for a 7 channel, quality, amp too much? I don't think Emotiva is responsible for "at least deliver a two part one liner accurately".

Who peed in your cheerios?

Oh, dear god It's called a typo. You know: A 'mistake'?

 

[Tom Andry]

Fixed. Thanks for the heads up.

Thanks Tom, the natives were getting restless with that typo

Looks like I'm going to have to pick up a XPA-3 for that price, use it to power my front L/C/R. I love pro-amps but damn are they ugly.

 

[ivseenbetter]

Wow! Awesome deal...I can't think of anything that could touch it.

You.

My post that you quoted was directed at the member that I quoted, not Emotiva. Take a closer look at it let's see if you and I are on the same page. I think the prices are reasonable to say the least.

I was standing up for Emotiva. Do you understand that?

Cool I thought you were referring directly to Emotiva. Sry 'bout that. Lost in translation.

Those were Cherios? Uh oh........

What's with the sarcasm? I was asking a polite and legitimate question. I figured that the admin posted that price for a reason, and perhaps there was a way to get that deal that wasn't on Emotiva's website.

I'm really tempted by the XPA-3. I'm going to need 4ohm stable amps for my new front 3 speakers. I had made up my mind to go with Yamaha pro amps but an XPA-3 is all I really need.

Does anyone know how good Emotiva's QC is? Are there any third party measurements for the XPA-3?

They maintain its about 1% failure rate (perfectly within means, after all it's too expensive to have no failures at all).

All of their XPA products seem to have favorable reviews.

No good deed goes unpunished.

When it's happening to you, I think it's funny.
When it's happening to me, not so much.
