Emotiva

Pros

The PT1 includes Bluetooth AptX HD that supports 24-bit quality.

Cons

no

Review

I like that the PT1 includes a tuner for FM radio, configurable for US or Europe and provides Autotune. Autotune rapidly scans the spectrum and assigns stations to presets. The display on the PT1 has three things I really like. First the blue display color is pleasant, second it is dimmable, and I especially like that the display automatically shuts off after about 5 seconds. From a user’s perspective I have no hesitation recommending the Emotiva equipment.

Pros

I'm not much of an audiophile so I'm going to focus more of the features and UI, but it does sound amazing as expected from Emotiva.

Cons

no

Review

The volume bar shows up in 4k now; you don't have to open the menu and close it to get it to re-navigate hdr content; the EMO-Q works; the remote is nicer; connecting directly to PC over usb has been on my wish-list for years; display is much more readable I highly recommend this product, can't beat it for the price!

Pros

the sound is great, very clear

Cons

There is lack of analog inputs

Review

It looсks really well done. The TA1 frm Emotiva is worth a careful look. It has a DAC and the sound is great, very clear. There's an MM/MC phono stage, a crossover for the subwoofer, an FM tuner. I've been using the TA1 for about 3 months and I like it absolutely. If I have to nitpick, I'm lacking a couple more analog inputs. But my general impression is a five-star DAC.
