Gonk it is funny you should mention the LMC-1 because I was going to post and ask if anyone had read or heard much about this "soon" to be released product. AT $699 alone or
$998 for the combo with their 125 wattx6 amp this would almost seem to good to be true. The other Emotive amp the MPS-1 I believe it is,has gotten some very good reviews. It will be intresting to see if AV-123s budget combo has the goods sound wise.
