The monoblocks are very powerful. 1000 watts @ 4 ohms. Wala na ako takot na kulang ang power. I'm able to experiment playing some discs very loud.  ;D

Very hard to say ... and honestly, I bought the Emotiva monoblocks mainly for their power, so that I don't get paranoid when I watch a movie at reference level and the Maestro Utopias are running full-range.

Glad that the Emos gave you peace of mind! :) Congratz again, Sir Mark!

Hehe. Nope. Inaabang ko stand ng center speaker. Ang ganda nun.  ;D

Iniisip ko pa kung bili ako one more monoblock amp.  ???

Parang gusto ko rin gawa another tweak sa acoustic treatments. Baka gawin ko ito within next 2 weeks. Sure kasi ako na pwede pa ma-improve acoustics.   :)

I'm already running the Denon 4311 as a prepro. Ang magandang prepro lang ay Integra 80.2 Wala ako interes. I think the Denon 4311 is better.

May interes talaga ako sa Grande Utopia -- when I retire and build a new house sa Sta Rosa. Matagal pa yun.  ;D

brader pag bisita mo siguraduhin mo na may helmet ka at straight jacket.  iwanan mo din ang wallet mo sa bahay.  pag pupunta ka, yung pabandang gabi para sigurado pasarado na ang mga tindahan ng gears!

and when you intend to go, take one last look at your gears.   ;)

Hirap biruin ni senor Mark....pikon!  :D

I want to search this house for the long list of groceries in mind, baka makakita ako ng pizza maker or ingredients. But since i know Mark is really not into pizza, i will just wait for the next thing to be served.

Congrats po!

Hi Donnel! Di ko nakalimutan ang request mo to play 1812 sa plaka during the EB. Natakot AV Driver. Baka raw tumalon tonearm ng TT. Wasak ang P100k na karayom.  ;D ;D
