All i know is you can use it on anything in the emo shop. As long as you us it before the experation date, I don't think there is any restrictions  |

Seems like it would have to be on a purchase of something beyond the price would be nice to know for sure

You can use them on anything except the item you got them with, even on shipping. |

you can't use it to buy a giftcard though

Well that would be a little silly as EmoBucks are effectively the same as the gift card and that would stop the expiry date which is probably the reason it's not allowed. |

Ha that is what I was thinking too because Im not really ready to buy anything just yet and was thinking about the DAC which is what Id want to use it on, not really anything I can get right now due to Christmas expenses...

I'm sure that's the reason, but I don't find it that silly. By using it for a giftcard you can still only spend it at Emotiva, so that shouldn't be such a big deal should it? |

I agree I would much rather wait and use it vs using on cables or something I really dont need, still a very generous gift but if they bent the rules a little i think ppl might be inlined to buy larger purchases with it Holidays are the worst time for spending money on yourself!

Yep, I was going to use mine towards the XDA-1 but they sold out of them before I could pull the trigger. Now with the XDA and the XSP being out until after the first of the year I can't use my EMO bucks on them. I guess that's a win for them but a loss for me.  But, I've been a loyal Mitsu and Phase Tech guy for about a decade and I haven't been offered jack-squat from them for anything (by way of comparison the oldest Emo-quipment I have is less than an year old). So, I guess it was the thought that counted (at least that is what I was told when I got that gift from nana that I wouldn't use either).  If anyone doesn't want their $50 Emobucks (the $100 from the UMC is non-transferable) I'd be happy to take them off your hands, tho. |

Except they want this "credit" used in the 2010 financial year and off the books would be my guess. Plus used on current products so they can get the most margin on new ones released in the new year. It's a financial business decision I would wager. |

so does this mean I can just use it on $100 worth of cables? Kind of a shame really to use it on that but nows not a good time to be buying anything for myself

You can use the Emobucks on any product that they sell. If you wanted to, you could spend in on Emo-shirts or caps to give to people on your Christmas list. Also, when I "paid" for my XDA-1, I was told that the XSP-1 will be released before Christmas... so those on the hunt for the XSP-1 MIGHT be able to use the Emobucks toward that purchase. If not, there is always cables, the trigger expansion box, the ERM speaker stand, or the RCA/XLR audio splitters. You may not have an immediate need for some of those "accessories", but when you get them "FREE" you can't go wrong.  |

That would be so sweet if it were to be available before Christmas! I just hope I have money left to be able to justify the purchase at that time of year. |

How far back does the $100 dollar offer go back?
If I got a UMC 1 back in May or June, does that count?
