I have never heard Emotiva products, but the specs seem great and prices even better. Are they just a direct seller like Outlaw. Any opinions on quality?

Daddy needs his own Christmas present! It seems a steal if the wuality is there.

LMC-1 / LPA-1 Ultra Theater Series Pair $899.00
New low price $749.00!!
$50.00 Special shipping included in final price.
$ 799.00

    Thanks. I had read the conclusions on the review and was impressed. Will read the guts later. You'll have to give a product review when you get your stuff set up.

    I contacted Emotiva and tried to get some of their amplifiers to review, but got no love from their Marketing deptartment. :(

    Planning to try again in January. Will let you guys know if I have any luck.

    I've been thinking about picking up the LPA-1.

    Very cool. I'm also in Johnson County. Will definitely let you know if I can get any Emotiva gear.

    On a side note, I should be receiving the VM20 speakers in the next week or so for demo. Perhaps I should have a mini-get-together for the KC based folks ... hmmm ...

    Except for a couple of isolated incidents they seem to be very fast. I know I and another member ordered some gear from emo and we both recieved our gear within 24 hours. Talk about being happy to see fed ex. I never dreamed they would be pulling in my drive way the very next day.

    FYI: I live in Indiana only about 10 hours from tennesee where the usually ship from.
