Hello and welcome, To be honest the reason we haven't posted the AP test data is because the XPR-1 and XPR-2 blew up several of our load banks. We have small signal data, but the full signal test I can't run right now and give you accurate data. I have ordered 100) 1000W 8 ohm non-inductive load banks and we are just waiting for them to arrive. Once here, it will take a couple of days to rebuild the test system and get the AP connected to it, but then we will be able to run the full set of test even at full power. I hope to have them very soon and we will get the data up as quickly as possible. Lonnie Dan wasn't kidding, you and him really do like to abuse the amps as a hobby! Oh wait... I guess this was abusing the load bank more than the amp...... I find the blown test bank much more entertaining than the AP data....... The AP data shows distortion and all the hard data, but the blown bank is PROOF of the power....... ;D Of course damaged gear isn't that much fun, so good luck in getting that fixed up. |

And, if everybody plays nice, maybe we'll post some pictures of the new load resistors when they come in.  Plllllllllllease? ;D ;D ;D ....100 1000W load banks? That's *NICE*! Components of the old blown bank would make great gifts/conversation pieces... ha ha ha. |

Adcom's current slogan is: "we have the power"-- hmmmm?
If Adcom currently claims to have the power, then what does Emotiva have?

So this is the real reason audioholics hasn't reviewed the amp. Keep a sharp eye out Although we were talking and he might be flying up here to do the power measurements because his load banks are smaller than the ones we blew up. ;D ;D |
