I agree that their automated system works just fine...It's their people that are messed up. I guess when you pay poorly and can't hire the brightest bulbs in the box that sort of things are going to happen. But the real problem seems to stem from poor leadership. The president of the company is...
As a Post Script to my earlier comments I have been trying to reach Dan L the owner of Emotiva for a couple of months. He comes on to the thread I wrote on their own forum and says that he hasn't gotten any calls and the problem has been taken care of in his opinion, then the thread gets pulled...
In August I purchased a USP-1 Preamp and two UPA-1 mono-block amplifiers "B stock" from Emotiva. I did this not so much to save the few dollars that I "saved" but because the person I was dealing with at Emo said that new units were not available until later in the year. I am not disappointed in...

You mentioned that your speakers were on spikes on a floating wood floor. By using the pucks you are isolating most of the low frequencies from the floor...which in the case of a floating floor is a good thing. IMHO I have found that it isn't a good practice to couple a speaker...
Hello and Welcome
You will enjoy the EM ESLs. I've listened to them before on a Marantz 100 wpc receiver and find that they are not as difficult to drive as many other ESLs. Good Luck and Enjoy!
Quite possibly true. I have similar results adding a tube stage into the mix. I originally bought an Emotiva ERC2 CD player to go with the preamp and monoblocks. I just wanted the simplicity of one remote control. What I found was that there appears to be an impedance issue between the ERC2 and...
I'm not so sure that the power requirements are all that different between the Vista and Electromotion ESLs to achieve the same listening levels. The Vistas can be powered by a 100 w receiver without noticable strain.
I guess it could be interpreted that way...lol, no they gave me $75 credit towards future purchase as a way of placating me for the first screw up. The trouble is that's a moot point once you've ****ed someone off so badly that they would never buy from you again. They essentially gave me...
Yes, do get decent ICs. When I first setup the gear I hooked it up from preamp to each amp with Audioquest King Cobras figuring, for this level of equipment that was good enough. As soon as 20 or 30 hours went by and I realized that he gear may be MUCH better than the pricing would indicate, I...
