XPA-DR3 REPLACED MY XPA-5 GEN 3

[CRASHFIRE]

New to the lounge and wanted to share. I just got my DR3 a few days ago and I can already tell a difference from the XPA-5 (gen 3). I have it hooked up to my Martin Logan 60 XT towers and 50XT center. I can't explain the difference in fancy words like the audio reviewers out there. The easiest way to explain it is I hear more detail, bass, and separation between the towers than I did when they were hooked up to the XPA-5. Even when only driving two channels with the XPA-5. I always wondered what reviewers meant when they said "separation" and "detail". Now I know! The DR3 just sounds better. I am really loving it. I have it running through my Marantz SR6012. Thank you, Emotiva for not making me regret the upgrade. It is so worth it!
