UPA-200

Introduction

Thank you for purchasing your new UPA-200 stereo power amplifier.  
The UPA-200 is the perfect choice as the centerpiece of a stereo audiophile system or the 

muscle for the front channels of a superb home theater system. The UPA-200 delivers 125 

watts per channel into 8 Ohms and 200 watts per channel into 4 Ohms of truly dynamic, 

superb sounding, clean power. The UPA-200 can easily drive inefficient speakers to 

satisfying sound levels, and sounds great doing it.
Inside, the UPA-200 boasts the advanced engineering, high quality components, heavy-

duty toroidal transformer power supply, proven Class A/B technology, and comprehensive 

protection you expect from Emotiva. Outside, you get classic Emotiva styling with full-sized 

five-way binding posts, gold plated RCA jacks, and informative front-panel status LEDs 

(which can be disabled in stealth mode). The UPA-200 also has another important feature 

built in: 

incredible value

We think it’s a winning combination, and we’re sure you’ll agree.  

Happy listening!
The Emotiva Team
