Time for Two Ways !

Everyone ignores Rega, IF you listen to acoustic music one of the most
natural sounds at any price .

@schubert

Haven't heard Rega in decades. When I last hear them they were Waaaaaay too laid back, the classic British monitor.

How are they now?

They are among the best speakers at any price for acoustic music aka jazz and classical .
I imagine rock fans would call their natural sound flat, but I’m not one so don’t really know .
I was at my local dealer a few months ago and he had the Rega small monitor on stands right next to Maggie . 7 , same room, same system, the Rega RX-1 was FAR better in every way and I do mean FAR . I’ve been to thousand of Classical concerts they are a go-to for non rich, and even the rich if they have good taste.

I think of the "British Sound" in this way erik. After music , my great love in art is Theater.
I can’t even imagine an American cast pulling off great BBC Masterpieces like " The Midwifes" shown on PBS .
 Many  British speaker are voiced for the best seat in the house, for Symphony that’s mid-hall as a rule .

schubert,

Nice analogy.  Can you see a British troupe performing Hamilton at the London Globe?  Cheers.

No, I can not abnerjack, Hamilton is a good show for American audiences.
The "Midwives" is , like most BBC "Masterpieces" a universal triumph for the entire human race and is shown and loved in over a hundred countries.


Hamilton would flop in Canada .
