interested in sound quality of emotiva mono block amps.

A lot of bang for the buck. Very good sounding equipment that is very reasonably priced. If they didn't sell direct, the prices on the equipment would be about 1 and 1/2 times higher than they are.
Emotiva is definitely a good bang for the buck, especially now with the sale going on.

My only problem with Emotiva is that there isn't much of their used stuff on the market, and for the price of their new stuff, you can get equipment that is arguably better on the used market.

A pair of XP-1 monoblocks, 500 wpc @ 8 ohms and 1,000 wpc @ 4 ohms go for $1600 a pair at 160 lbs with free shipping, 30-day free trial and 5 year transferrable warranty.

and for the price of their new stuff, you can get equipment that is arguably better on the used market.

Tonyangel, I'm curious, what is arguably better on the used market for that price?

Anybody know if the reference series amps are a step up from the XPA? ie; XPR-1 vs. XPA-1 and I'm not just talking about the obvious increase in output power.
