Just looking for all the info I can get about the new Emotiva passive speakers. I'm currently running the XMC-1 and the XPA-5. To say I'm thrilled with the performance would be an understatement. Restored my faith in made in America. Truly high end performance for a fair price. As well Emotiva's customer service is top notch. You can actually call and a real live person answers. Plus they speak English.
Ok back to reason for this post. Just wanting to get information about the new passive speaker line!

Here's a thread over at AVS that just got started that seems poised to present more information about the speakers. The OP is the same guy who posted the initial announcement threads about the new Emo gear. www.avsforum.com/forum/89-speakers/2286210-emotiva-airmotiv-speakers-demo-ces-2016-a.html |

Brian62, you have a right to be excited! I also own the XMC-1 and XPA-5. They drive my former Emotiva Reference series speakers, which have always been way under appreciated IMO. My 5.1 system sounds superb to me for both HT and multi/2 channel music. I also was shocked when I saw the intro price on the new Emo speakers. Looks like Big Dan and Lonnie and crew have done another amazingly great job of bringing us poor folks great sound at a best bang for the buck factory direct price.
What amazes me is that about 5-6 years ago when I was first into Emotiva gear and mentioned and raved at the AVS forum (and several other forums) about my purchases of the Emo amp, speakers and CD player I was accused of being an Emo fan boy and not experienced enough to evaluate high end sound, even though I was into Altec Lansing, JBL, AR, Nakamichi, Marantz, TEAC, Dual, etc. before most of these experts were born. Things started to get turned around there finally and now Emotiva gets a lot of well deserved respect.
There is not a better HT/Audio dealer anywhere (at least on this planet)!

So... ...when/where can I buy the AirMotiv SB? I'm in the market for one and after an XPA-5, UMC-1, X-Ref12 and XDA-2, it would be insane to start looking elsewhere  Also those towers look unbelievably good  |

I too am super stoked about the new speaker line up. I have been waiting for it since it was first discussed. I am extremely pleased to see the AMT tweeters made it into the line, and was stunned at the very reasonable cost of the speakers. With prices like that, it makes it much easier to take a gamble on buying unheard. I am hoping there will be plenty of reviews as well. I have no doubts about the AMT tweeters, but am curious to see how they perform in the mid-range and low bass areas as well.

Bootman, my post was just a "off the cuff" of this very sentiment. But a point that is important to make. Maybe this place is nearing its usefulness and is EOL. |
