Emotiva XMC-1 owners....

I am considering trying the new Emotiva XMC-1 home theatre processor and wanted anyone who has one to please key in your experience with this awaiting piece. I am on a large upgrade waiting list but would like some feedback for those who have it at home. Any comparisons would be nice as I previously sold my UMC-200 processor and now use a tube integrated with an Oppo 103 for processing which is just ok. The Oppo has bad volume control, no sub control & no XLR connectivity. Thx in advance....

What exactly did Emotiva do to you,to dislike them so much.
No I don't own the XMC-1, I am not into home theater much,but I got two XPR-2 amps in a second system and have nothing but good things to say.
I have noticed your negative comments against Emotiva.
Let them be,this,that or any other audio manufacturer,in the grand scheme of things,they also are needed to produce products for us hobbyists to be able to enjoy.
It's a good thing.
Peace,out

All manufacturers claim they make the best gear,you know that!
Why would Emotiva be or act any different. Their reason for existence as a company is to make profit.Now they do so by producing a good product without overcharging the customer.
For example looking at my XPR amps,I can tell you that they did cut costs on the chassis by using thinner metal on the case ONLY at top,rear panels. The front is all the business with nice thick one inch aluminum faceplate.
Inside the unit there is nothing missing in parts quality that you wouldn't see in say a MAC amp or Bryston.
Only those makers charge 3 and 4 times up.
