Added on June 7, 2010, 12:21 pmHere's the review on SVS BFS-1000TA (150w X 7) Vs Emotiva XPA-5 (200w X 5).

1. Movie
(Both connected to 5 channels only)

Test materials : Terminator Salvation, DF & Friends, TDK

SVS shines in HF. It exhibits clearer details. In TS' 7-11 scene, as Kyle walks into it, you can hear the finer details of the shoes grinding the earth. This is also noticable in DF as there is much HF details now. TDK also sounds crispier now.

The vocal sounds as much the same. SVS seemingly a tad wider. The mid-bass punch is greater in SVS than Emo. It is tighter. This is only marginally better.

On power, both also as similar with no distinct difference. Note that it is on power-hungry MTS-01 system. I thought that the 50W difference would yield a difference. I did not calibrate the channel level when switch to SVS.

On Pure Direct :
(Both being connected to 2 inputs only)

Test materials : Planet Drum, Jennifer Warnes - The Hunter, Aaron Neville - Warm Your Heart, and Michael Buble - It's time.

WOW! It sounds a whole lot louder than Emo. That's strange hmm.gif .

The SVS sounds larger than life. It is very forward sounding with the vocal being in front. The music pieces sounds large as well. Its bass attack is tight and fast. Sort of like Krell 300Xi's signature. A bit brutal. In Planet Drum, it excels as it is able to reproduce the bass with enough power. Jennifer Warnes' Somewhere Somebody is being reproduced in a wide soundstage and it never lacks the dynamic. It kind of make you to crank louder. The HF shines again for music.

Emo has a tad better refinement in vocal. It is slightly more focus but it lacks the dynamic of SVS. It's kind of a bit laid back.

Since this SVS is a prototype unit and some refinement will be done on the mass production unit, I am looking forward to have the final unit  smile.gif

Not a bad start in power amp segment. Kudos to B&O and SVS thumbup.gif
