Opinions on Rega Amps and Speakers


The Planet and Jupiter (2000 models) are my two favorite CD players. How do the Rega amps stack up -- the Mira, and the amp/preamp combos? What about Rega speakers. Much appreciated!

I've been using a Mira 2000 with a first gen Planet for about four months now. I tried a first gen Mira, and found it to be fun, but not very detailed compared to the Mira 2000, or the Arcam Diva.
I'm using some mordaunt short MS90 speakers, and they sound great with the rega gear. I've auditioned the Rega Juras, but they don't have much on the MS90s and are twice the price.
I also listened to the Mira 2000 with a pair of Linn Keosas, and I think they probably are a notch above the Juras for about the same price.

I've heard the Ara's with a naim 150/32.5/hicap and they did sound neat. The build quality seems a little questionable though. What's up with those grills? I took one off, and spent about ten min trying to get it back on.
