I see a lot of pictures posted showing the inside of the Emotiva XPA-2/3/5. I assume that the torroid is inside the black box encasement in the front of the amplifier. Does anyone have a picture showing what it looks like? I assume it looks like torroids found in other amplifier in terms of size based on the specification posted on the Emotiva website.:confused:

    I think they encase the torroid on the xpa's because at full draw it can generate a magnetic field which can distort A/V signal's and such....

    :o

    After having my xpa5 for a week or so i can say: WOW! :eek: I never knew how much i was actually missing when using only the AVR! Can you imagine if i would have spent like $3k - $5k on an amp? I would have like 10 time's better sound ;)

    I see some more Emotiva product's in my future. Great price's, AWESOME customer service and IMHO a wicked product! Happy listening :D
