Emotiva launched with the goal of creating premium hi-fi and AV products at very affordable prices. Emotiva’s entry into the UK market has already been greeted with several "Editors Choice" awards and excellent reviews.
As premium audio market has become a dwindling market with ever-inflating prices, the value of auditory bliss has got out of reach for most audiophiles. Therefore, novel enthusiasts have had to settle for lesser hi-fi quality systems. However, Dan Laufman and his team spotted the market inefficiencies and ever increasing prices. So while they were aiding some renowned audio brands in manufacturing their gear, they also decided to create Emotiva.
The goal of Emotiva is to create great performing home theatre and audio equipment that is within the budget most audio enthusiasts. Everyone in the Emotiva, from the engineering team, the manufacturing group, to the support staff, have your ultimate home entertainment experience at the forefront of their mind.
What makes Emotiva different from many other home entertainment manufacturers, is that they are passionate enthusiasts themselves who enjoy the experience of using Emotiva products equally as much as designing and building them.
Emotiva brings you hi-fi quality sound, by combining the latest engineering technology with the top quality components of more expensive ‘audiophile products,’ without the high price. For example the Emotiva Basx units are very competitive priced, and if you assess the versatility of the Emotiva a-100 basx you can understand that the listener is paramount to their philosophy. Many of the Emotiva units are modular and upgradeable, and all of them deliver top quality acoustic performance to last a lifetime.
We have a range of closed back design headphones, which offer impressive isolation and passive noise attenuation thanks to the nature of their design keeping the majority of your music in, and most external noise out. These are ideal for personal use, noisy environments and commuting.
Alternatively, open-back headphones are favoured by many due to their spacious and open sound profile, which comes about due to the open nature of their design. Open back headphones are primarily recommended for home use as the open design means sound is leaked, and so they are preferable in quiet environments.
With the popularity of portable music devices, the selection of earphones available has increased dramatically. We offer a range of earphones ranging from budget models designed to offer an improvement over standard giveaway earphones to high-end earphones designed to offer the performance of high-end headphones in a compact and portable package. Many earphones are of the in-ear variety – slotting into the ear canal, and offering excellent isolation and passive noise attenuation, enabling you to listen at quieter volumes and also use your earphones in noisy environments.
We also stock a range of headphone amplifiers, which offer dramatic improvements over the majority of standard headphone amplifiers featured in devices, computers or amplifiers. These amplifiers are designed specifically for use with headphones, and are unrivalled for detail, soundstage and precision when compared to similarly priced integrated solutions. We also stock a range of headphones accessories, ranging from headphones stands to spare earpads and headbands.
