Awesome
« Thread Started on Apr 9, 2011, 5:41am »

Hello i have just setup the UPA-1 and they har Awesome. Earlier i had the Onkyo 875. it started to break down on me so i just had to change. i have been locking at emotiva for the last 1,5 years so finaly i can tell my girl that i need them

so i got the UMC-1 and 2 UPA-1

So i plug everything in and am thinking that there will be some difference. but there is a huge difference. i can here things i have never heard before the base is more controled, the high´s are crisp and the mid-range is nice and clear. the sound stage is bigger and i just get sucked into the music it is awsome

and the noise floor is goooone, if i play flack or from spotify dosent matter, it is black. i cant find enny his at all as long as it isn´t a shitty recording

if you are in the market, you dont have to think, there is no way you can´t like them =)

i am from sweden so my english is crap, that i know so no need to point that out

hope this helps some one out there , just PM me if you want to know more and i will answer =)

Your avatar is pretty universal, too! (At least up in these parts of the USA.)

someone: Glad to hear there was a big difference. I'll bet your girl even noticed it. Enjoy!

I haven't seen that movie, but sounds like the Gypsy Kings, awesome. I saw them in concert on the grass (I wasn't on grass) at the St. Michelle Winery (I wasn't on wine either, just non-alcoholic beer).

Don't worry about your English Someone, LOTR's English isn't so good either!

Yeah, it's on my list (at the top). I missed it when it was first out and then forgot about until recently when I saw some highlights of it on TV.
