Hi,
I am planning to upgrade my existing gear to improve the quality of my audio listening.
My listening area is in my living room, I do not have a dedicated HT room, the dimensions are 21ft X 15 Ft.
My existing set-up consists of AVR Onkyo, SR-606 and Diamond 9.6 speakers, I will be using the ERC-1 as the source.
In my pursuit of this upgrade, I came across these Emotiva babies, my question is
How are these different (XPA-2 vs. UPA-2), I dont understand the class A,B stuff, (keep your answer easy to understand)
Are these the right products for my requirement?
Diamond 9.6 say power handling 40 to 200 Watts at 6 ohms, both these guys do not have their spec for 6 Ohms (They have it listed for 4 and 8 Ohms)
Will the XPA-2 overkill?
Other there other products which I should have a look at?
Can I still use my AVR for Video playback and these amp for audio/cd playback (both the AVR and amp connected to the same speaker 9.6?
Thank you !
