    You said that like it's a negative thing. :confused:

    And here I thought AGE was supposed to equal WISDOM..not dating oneself.

    If you don't believe me buy a copy of Jacques Barzun's From Dawn to Decadence: 1500 to the Present. Written by Barzun in his 90s!!!

    It seems it actually takes a bit of time to accumulate 'knowledge'. And that that may be a GOOD THING.

    I think Mike is at least as old/older as I am and that we may have learned a thing or two during our time on earth.

    Welcome to the Forum Joe Ceasar. They will come soon enough, be sure to give us your impressions on the sound of the Emotiva amps with your RTiA9 speakers when you get everything setup and connected.

    There are many happy Emotiva owners on this forum and a few who wish they owned them. Then there is the "anything but Emo" crowd. They prefer pie.:)

    I like pie, what kind of pie we got?

    After talking with the good guys at polk, he insisted I try to BIAMP from the XPA-5:D.

    Will it be correct to say the a9 will have 400 watts input if Biamped?

    Total it will equal up to 400 watts, but you would in actuality be sending 200 watts to your lows and 200 watts to your mids/highs. My RTi12s see 525 watts per speaker. If you want big power get yourself a Sunfire or something else. I would also suggest you try an IcePower amp. 200 watts is really enough, but I like to do things overkill.
