Axiom Home Page Forums General Discussion Advice from Axiom Owners Anyone running M80s off an emotiva UPA-7?

I am running the XPA-5, XPA-2, and the UMC-1 (before that an onkyo tx-nr1007 and before that a yamaha rx-v1800 with a LPA-1)with my M80'2 and the sound is amazing and distortion free. Plenty of headroom. I will say if you are getting and XPA-2 to call them and let them know you are using it with M80's. I went to Emofest last fall and I was very impressed.

The UMC-1 is built like a tank, but still has a few bugs for me after the first firmware update. Although the firmware update resolved a lot of my issues. I love the sound quality it blows away my last two receivers. YMMV but I think if anyone is interested they should try their products. I have been happy with all four Emotiva products I have owned and I love my Axiom speakers.

I am sure it is disappointing to those that have had problems with the M80/emotiva combo I have just not had those issues.
