Someone local to me is selling a mint XPA-5 gen 1 with both trims, box and all accessories for $650. It still has warranty until 2018. Is this a fair price? Would something closer to $600 be more practical. I'm thinking about purchasing this and selling my UPA-1's.

Not a bad price at all. You could probably find one a little cheaper if your not in a hurry to buy.

I would offer $600, which to me is fair especially if it's local and you don't have to worry and wait for shipping

Do you know if the used ones from Emotiva offer any warranty? I see Dan is on maybe he can chime in on that one, but if I remember correctly it is one year, if that local one has around 3 years warranty still and both trim colors $600 is a fair price IMO, like I said when no shipping is involved that is a bonus, not that I have had any issues...Knock on wood....haha but it's nice not waiting either  Chad |

Do you know if the used ones from Emotiva offer any warranty? I just called and asked about a used one from Emotiva. They were $549, with a one year warranty, but they didn't have any a couple of days ago. I ended up ordering a new one. Should get here next week. I can't wait! |

I listed mine for $350.00 but I don't have any to sell,,,,ha,,,,ha,,,,,,,,,, cant sell ell what ha don't have. Hope the price doesn't go up when they become available!! I once knew a guy that always had the best prices but never had anything in stock,,,,that's what made me think of the above jest!! youll just have to keep checking if your not in a rush to get one. The XPA-5 is a great amp and everyone that dose HT should own one.  |

I just traded my last Stealth 6 towards an XPA-5 Gen1, it will be my third XPA-5 to date haha wtf is wrong with me, I got a problem and my name is Chad lol, I've had a new Gen1 and Gen2 and now back to a XPA-5 Gen1 paired with my XPA-100's, I guess this is what happens when you can't make up your mind and you return to passive speakers from powered hahaha  |
