Just joined, but have been here for a while reading. I've got an itch to upgrade from some vintage equipment to more modern. I have some questions which I'll post in the amplifier forum on the XPA-2 and UPA-1's. Interested in 2 channel right now and if these amps will play nicely with a few of my existing pieces. Enjoy the forum and hope to get some good feedback and place an order in the near future!
