try shouting drummermanBig Smile  seriously though, don't know if it's possible but you could look in the avi adm9 thread and try clicking on drummermans name and browse his posts until you find some about rega's.  or wait.  from his description they seem like excellent speakers but haven't heard myself.

Re: any fans

i heard the 5's the other day and thought they sounded amazing (especially playing leftfield song for life, which was a proper goose bump and big grin moment!) but they hurt/ fatigued my ears when turned up whereas a softer speaker didnt (i used to DJ and my ears are sadly quite sensitive now). I would be very intrested to hear others views on these speakers as there is not much info around. I have found reviews in the stereo times on line and the guy absolutely gushes about the 7's (will have to give them a test now too!). Im also wondering what they would be like in a harder environment to that of the soft auditioning room.


Thanks for your reply.

Re: any fans

so maybe drummerman can recommend what av amp would do the rega's justice?


Myabe i will get shot for suggesting an AV amp but its all going to be part of my home enetertainment system which includes movies.


Depending on how things go, and when i have enough oney, i may incorporate a dedicated amp.


Thanks guys.
