I bought one from you 3 years ago based on your recommendation; I listen to it EVERYDAY so can vouch for this product! You’re a solid DFW dealer of Hifi equipment and I appreciate your honesty. I’ll be back for more when budget allows!!
Is this thing advanced enough to do KEF Reference 5 and 4 Meta justice? I’m primarily a home theater guy but want really nice LR for music. And am learning to just go LCR for movies because that makes the most sense.
@@Totalplonker This is an unboxing and review...what system are you asking about? I use this amp all the time. I have it at home in my theater which there is already a whole video about on my Focal Utopia in walls. But this amp can run just about any system.
Either. Even the AVM70 which is what I own. Just depends on how seriously you take your processor. You can even use a receiver with pre outs so it powers the rears. Super AV money saving hack.
Adding an expensive power amp to a mediocre AVR. It's still going to be the AVR that's making itself known! Hence, one should try to keep things evenly balanced!
100000% disagree..you hear the amp. Changing the electronics makes a TINY difference in comparison. The receiver is just a volume control at that point. You should change both...but this is the difference tha tmatters.
A poweramps only job is to boost an output signal! Whereas with an AVR, is responsible for receiving & processing the signal. Even if an AVR is using external amplification, it's still the components within the AVR that will be responsible for quality the signal. Boosting an already established signal is basically giving one more of what ones already got. I think you might be getting confused between AVR and a processor, which btw, narrating on a video I would imagine would be quite easy to do. Always respect people who are willing to put themselves out there. Cheers
Theater Advice, loving the consistent uploads, keep it going
Doing my best. Expensive and time consuming. Lol

Thanks so much. What a great comment. I love mine too
Theater Advice, cool video I loved it
I appreciate it so much man. really just me talking but it's good people like it lol.

100% yes. It's a great all around work horse with finesse.
Would the A31 be a good pairing with the Focal Sopra 3's & Sopra Center Channel?
absolutely...I owned that exact combo
No sir you do not ramble 😊.
You give great insight and you are passionate about your craft 👏
Thank you so much 😀
Very helpful look at this amplifier. What do you think of the Arcam amplifiers as a comparison?
Similar. You'd have to listen to both but they make good stuff. I am a Halo guy personally but love them both.
@@TheaterAdvice_FCAV thank you for the reply. I have Arcam now
@@soniclink8960 Great stuff
@soniclink8960
what kind of speaker configuration are you running? Better still, and if you don't mind, please relay your entire setup

I love this guy. he’s known nonsense and tell it like it is. Fantastic keep up the great work.
I appreciate it so much. Just a video of me talking so It's a good thing people like it. Plenty don't..haha. Lots of haters.
Which audioquest power cord to get
Any of them are better than the box...smaller differences as you go up the list. Honestly only marginally important. NRG X3 great for the money.
So with the A31 would you go with an AV10 or AVM90?
Either. Even the AVM70 which is what I own. Just depends on how seriously you take your processor. You can even use a receiver with pre outs so it powers the rears. Super AV money saving hack.
@Sivakumar59999 this is a video on a 3ch amp..you are posting about a pre amp with a 3 star review on Crutchfield. Hard pass.
👏👏👏👏👏
Thanks
