The Rega R1 Loudspeaker - A New Budget Reference

I bought a pair of RS1's today.

The dealer said to try them over the 4th weekend, right out of the box they're great!

What might they do when broken in?

I cant wait to hear the changes!

I'm glad I stumbled into the audio store that day.

My B&W ASW 600 sub seems to mate well with them too, giving the needed weight.

I'm excited.
Thanks for all the responses and comments, these are sooo under the radar.
I'm impressed to say the least. Can't wait to get them broken in.

These have a real nice flow about them, music just rolls out natural,very nice.
