Dan Laufman , Lonnie , KeithL I am very interested in the impending release of the EMP-1 but I have a few questions that hopefully can be answered First question is since I am in Canada and would most likely order from one of the Canadian retailers am I able to use my Upgrade For Life discount with them or would I have to order directly from you. Second question is I own the Full Dirac version from owning the XMC-1, is that something I can use with the EMP-1 or is it a different version of Dirac that must be used. Easy enough questions I suppose but important ones for me, hopefully the EMP-1 is launching soon as I really miss having the Dirac room correction as I really enjoyed it with the XMC-1 and I now have my subs and mains behind an AT screen and would really like to hear what Dirac can do for adjustments as my setup has had some drastic changes.

I was going to post earlier to say these questions are best asked directly of Emotiva. If you do get answers, please share back here!

Mark Yeah I tagged the guys from Emotiva that I thought would most likely be able to answer these questions for me so hopefully one of them see's the post and can give the answers for the questions I have asked of them.

I noticed you did...but their frequency here is too low to expect a rapid answer. That's not a complaint - they have a business to run and product to develop and get into production (!!!!) to make us all really happy. And, a flood is about to be released between the new X-series, the Emersa line, and the Airmotiv line.

Just letting you know that I've read your questions - but I don't have definite answers yet.
I will, however, look into it...

Thanks Keith, don't worry I know you guys are really busy and the EMP-1 isn't being released tomorrow(or is it haha kidding...but really ), whenever you have a chance just let us know, I'm just missing Dirac so much I'm getting all giddy haha. Also I understand if there are questions that can't be answered until product launch Chad

OK... so far...
YES - you WILL be able to use your discount-for-life (or your 40% card) on the Emersa pre/pro (but both are only valid for pre/pros).
I still don't have a definite answer for you yet about Dirac. (It was my understanding that the current Dirac Live versions - both LE and Full - are licensed specifically to go with the XMC-1, so I suspect that they won't be interchangeable - but I don't have any definite information at this point - so that could possibly change.)

I missed that last part. The 40% card, and the discount-for-life, are only valid if you make the purchase directly from Emotiva. OK... so far...

Thanks Keith, so I can use the my Upgrade For Life at one of your Canadian retailers then Ahhh crappy, well at least I can order it direct from you guys and drive down to the border(2 hour round trip) to pick it up from Border Shipping Services, the company I use for exactly this purpose, but for others who are not close to the border it's not a good thing.

Yeah, sorry. The fact is that we really can't give you the discount and still have anything left to give the dealer for their cut. I missed that last part.

Why is it possible for others outside of the US to order direct from Emotiva, yet I cannot down in Kangaroo Country Well I order directly from Emotiva and have it shipped to a company close to the US/Canadian border and I take my passport and drive over and bring it back into Canada paying my taxes and such when doing so.

Why is it possible for others outside of the US to order direct from Emotiva, yet I cannot down in Kangaroo Country Allegedly you can, but only if you qualify for "Upgrade for Life" or have a 40% discount card to use. You'll also have to post any items you buy back to the US if they require warranty service. Of course that is almost never required (joke).

Yes I understand the difference in regard to distance, but when I tried to order direct was told a direct no which is not what the post said by Dan.. The prices out here are in my opinion nothing short of theft... But this is old news , I had a major whinge about this some time back , I just got cranky when I see people from other countries able to buy direct...
I just have a natural aversion to being bent over ...
