New USP-1
« Thread Started on Oct 31, 2009, 2:00pm »

Quick take on the USP-1-

Recently got back into vinyl and CDs. Once I got the big screen and HT setup it reminded me that once sound quality was more important than convenience. So I had the new Rega turntable and ERC-1 and I was running them thru the Onkyo 806 on pure audio mode. Now with my Polk RTI A9s I thought this would give me the best SQ. Bass was still lacking in some areas. I needed the sub with pure analog. The USP-1 is a perfect fit.

I have more than enough bass and the overall volume capability is much higher than my Onkyo. I feel that now I am getting the most that my speakers will provide which is all we can ask for.

Thanks Emo for providing the gear at an affordable price. I look forward to the UMC-1.
