I've had every amp Emo makes at one time or another except the XPA-1, MPS & IPS. They've all been great amps and I've never had a complaint with any of them.
You really can't go wrong with any of them. The biggest problem is sticking with whatever you have and not trading up every 3-6 months!!! ;D

Im stunned by the lack of RPA love. But the UPA-1 is an underrated amp for sure. the XPA-5 is great for a single amp solution! The poll cannot be accurate and the RPA cannot win since there are so many forum members who haven't seen or heard them. Also, many Emotiva owners have only owned or heard 1 or two of the amplifiers. XPA-5 has sold the most units, so it is listed as #1. Doug

I will say that I honestly don't know which is the best amp. I will say that I voted RPA-1/2 because I own an RPA-1 and after 2 years of ownership I never grow tired of listening to it.
I've heard the XPA-1 and was floored by it as well.
My guess would have to be that all Emotiva amps are winners of this poll.

Silent Background. Can drive most anything from 96dB (like mine) to very inefficient speakers. Built like a tank. XPA-1 gets my vote.
