Selling a 1 year old gently used, Emotiva XSP-1 Gen 2. I am the second owner.  Selling as I have changed my 2ch room and am using an integrated vs. separates. This preamp is so well reviewed and really shines for what it does, regardless of price point. Preamp is in 9/10 condition (because of a small nick on top corner) and comes with original accessories.  The remote has a "scar" on it but in now way does it affect performance. For this reason I will ship for free within the Contiguous United States. No original box, but it will be well packaged for shipping.    

Details: 


  • Exceptional sound quality via an all-analog, fully balanced, differential signal path with vanishingly low noise and distortion.

  • Tight-tolerance surface mount components and short, precisely matched signal paths deliver a superb, tightly focused acoustic signature.

  • Excellent input and output flexibility: 2 sets of balanced inputs, 4 sets of unbalanced inputs, one set of balanced main outputs, and one set of unbalanced main outputs.

  • Support for both stereo subwoofers and a summed mono subwoofer.

  • Level control via a high resolution (.5dB/step) digitally controlled analog resistor network.

  • Audiophile quality, load invariant, high current headphone amplifier with independent level control and memory.

  • High performance phono preamp that supports both moving magnet and moving coil cartridges, with user-configurable cartridge loading for moving coil cartridges.

  • Full analog bass management with independent, individually configurable, Linkwitz-Riley 12 dB/octave high-pass and low-pass filters for the mains and subs.

  • Digital flexibility and convenience including precise repeatability on all settings, a smart mute function, turn on level limit, and a full function remote control.

  • True external processor loop.

  • Top quality parts and construction for years of reliable service, including hand-selected semiconductors and top quality passive components.

  • Gold plated, solid brass machined RCA connectors and gold plated XLR connectors.

  • Highly regulated and shielded toroidal power supply.

  • Informative, dimmable front panel VFD display shows level, status, and input selections.
