I understand that, while I still owe money on the house or the car, my money's not my own.

Well, maybe hold off until the upgrade is forced for some other reason? That's always the way I've done things. Yeah, I want a new ABC, but I might as well stick with this ABC until it has to be replaced, and do it then. All my whims don't have to be fulfilled on my own timeline.

This is the antithesis of "you only live once," follow it at your own peril of boringness.

The antithesis of this might also be to replace "on my own timeline" with "in my own lifetime".

Why not go ahead and give the thing a try? You're obviously curious enough to ponder the question and ask some advice... just promise yourself that you'll return it if you don't like it.. how much hassle does it really amount to, to box it up and return it?
And, your curiousity (and some of ours, by the way) will be satisfied! \:\)

your trigger plan with the ratshack DC adapter should work fine with any Emotiva amp. I ran my M80s for a year with a LPA-1 without any shutdown issues. Now I am using an XPA-5 with no problems. I know you would hear the difference with the XPA-3 or 5! I think you will also hear a noticeable improvement with the UPA-2. I say go for it!

Maybe if we were Ray or Jack's ages I'd be in a bigger rush.

You'd better speak up if you want them to be offended.

Isn't today the last day of the sale?

If I could start getting payments from all these companies with outstanding invoices at the moment, I'd probably order an XPA-3!

Ooops- Too late to edit, but I just remembered that the amp Ken is looking at isn't even on sale yet!
