Ever wondered why speakers, amplifiers, projectors etc. come with a slightly heftier price tag in India compared to their overseas counterparts? Well, part of the answer lies in our country's Goods & Services Tax (GST).

But here's the kicker: Don't let that GST input slip through your fingers! Especially when some of the products we supply carry a GST rate of 18% and 28%.

At AVStore, we provide you with a GST compliant invoice for every purchase.

XPA-2 Gen3

The new XPA-2 is a two-channel audiophile quality power amplifier, and is perfect for powering:

A superb quality stereo or 2.1 channel music system.

The two critical main channels of a 5.1 channel or 7.1 channel home theater system.

Adding an XPA-2 to your current high-quality AVR is a great way to take your two-channel music listening to a whole new level of enjoyment.

Configuration: 2 x High-Powered Single-Channel Modules
(five module slots remain available for future expansion)

Power output:

  • 300 watts/channel RMS into 8 Ohms; two channels driven
  • 490 watts/channel RMS into 4 Ohms; two channels driven

Regulated Switch Mode Power Supply (SMPS)

One of the design enhancements shared by all Emotiva’s new XPA power amplifiers is their new, specially designed, high current, switch mode power supply (SMPS). Emotiva’s powerful, intelligent new power supply offers all of the benefits of a classic transformer-based design, but avoids virtually all of the limitations. It can deliver over 3 kW of fully regulated power, which ensures optimum performance under a wide range of load conditions, and plenty of dynamic power to ensure that musical peaks will never be compressed or limited. However, it’s also more efficient, more reliable, and much lighter.

Class A/B Sound Quality Meets Optimized Class H Efficiency

The High-Powered Single Channel Modules used in the XPA-2 utilize a fully analog Class A/B output stage, and Emotiva’s highly regarded Soft-Switch™ Optimized Class H power supply topology, which increases their efficiency significantly without compromising their superb Class A/B performance and sound quality. At low power levels, each channel operates on a relatively low supply voltage, to minimize quiescent power consumption and standby power losses. Then, when the demand for power increases, it instantly and seamlessly switches to a higher voltage rail to ensure that the signal passes cleanly and without clipping. This process happens on a continuous basis - in real time, allowing greater overall efficiency, cooler operation, longer component life, reduced power consumption, and increased reliability.

Sound Quality First

  • Designed first and foremost to sound superb in all types of audio systems with all types of music.
  • Low noise, low distortion, wideband amplifier design with traditional Class A/B output stage ensures smooth, detailed sound, without a trace of strain or harshness.
  • Totally stable with real world speakers in real systems; not just on a test bench.

Modern Efficient Circuit Design

  • Optimized Soft-Switch Class H™ power supply topology delivers improved efficiency without compromising audio performance.
  • Switched Mode Power Supply (SMPS) offers all of the performance of a traditional linear power supply, with improved efficiency and reliability, and reduced overall weight.

Quality Construction

  • Top quality parts and construction throughout for years of reliable trouble-free  service. 
  • Heavy steel 4RU chassis with milled aluminum faceplate offers strength and rugged good looks.
  • Solid machined gold-plated RCA input connectors provide a reliable connection with a wide variety of audio interconnects.
  • Fully modular construction allows you to purchase as many channels as you need today, and then add more channels later when and if you need them.
  • Designed, assembled, and tested in the U.S.A. at Emotiva’s plant in Franklin, Tennessee

Flexible Signal Connections and Power Options

  • Gold plated five-way speaker binding posts with clear shields allow you to use a wide range of speaker cables with bare wires, lugs, or banana plugs.
  • Choice of balanced or unbalanced input for each channel, independently controlled by reliable metal toggle switches.
  • Remote trigger input and output allow the XPA-2 Gen3 to control and be controlled by other trigger-enabled equipment.
  • World compliant AC line voltage operation enables the XPA-2 Gen3 to operate on any line voltage between 100 VAC and 250 VAC 50/60Hz.
  • Standard IEC power inlet fits all standard IEC power cables and most custom audiophile power cables.

Protection

  • Audiophile-grade fault protection is entirely transparent under normal listening conditions, yet protects the amp and your other equipment from virtually all common faults.
  • The XPA-2 Gen3 is protected from AC line faults by a rugged resettable rear panel push-button circuit breaker.
  • Full five-year warranty ensures that you’ll be able to enjoy your XPA-2 Gen3 amplifier for years to come.
