When will they be back in stock? Has anyone heard anything? My modest two channel needs an upgrade from the Basx sats it is currently running.  |

Didn't really think of them. Guess I was just focused on getting some better bookshelf speakers.
The a-100 would pair well with the T zero?

The T Zero will fool you. It is a great speaker and takes up no more space than a bookshelf on stands. Price is good.

The A-100 is my favorite amplifier outright from Emotiva along with the yet to be heard PA-1s. Crazy good. T Zero would be great on it.

Ordered a pair of B1+ over the weekend.
This is for a small system at a second home.
Here is how I got there....the home was owned by my in-laws and was inherited on my wife's side when they passed. For years it has a cheap JVC receiver and cd player plus a Pioneer turntable. The speakers were old Infinity RS9 bookshelf. I had replaced the woofers years ago with Parts Express woofers.
I recently decided to do an upgrade. Bought a used Adcom GFA-5200 amp for $80. Bought a used but in great shape Adcom GTP-500 preamp. Already had a Denon DVD-558 dvd player to use for CD's. Took everything down and connected up.
Lisened to cd, everything sounding great. Then went to hook up the turntable....I also have an Emotiva XPS phono preamp....ACCIDENTLY connected the phone preamp to the phono input on the Adcom GTP-500..should have connected to a line level RCA input..switched inputs and heard a loud hum and then a Pop!
Sure enough, the combination of preamps fried both one speaker's woofers and also damaged the left channel in the old Adcom amp! Opened the amp and found two fuses blown....replaced those and still left channel hum.
So....bummed as I was, I took everything home and pulled out a spare Emotiva A100 amp that I wasn't currently using and went to test. I was worried I may have caused damage to the Adcom preamp also. The preamp was fine. No problem playing any source.
I decided to toss the old Infinity's....large bookshelves that my wife didn't like anyway and buy the B1+.
Really looking forward to hearing the new Emotiva speakers.
As to the Adcom amp....I hate to toss stuff, so I may ask a good EE friend who works on Mcintosh to take a look at that left channel.

SOME of those old Infinity speakers sound pretty good. That is not my recollection of the RS9 though. Good upgrade!
