Rega R3


Has anyone had a chance to listen to the R3 or the RS3? I have a love affair for anything Rega, call me a sucker, but I was curious about their speakers. The minimalistic crossover and somewhat effecient nature seem to be a good match for tube gear, which I also can't live without. Any thoughts or experience with this relatively affordable speaker would be greatly appreciated.

My room is tough! 19 foot by 20 foot, BUT with 3 large 5 foot openings to the rest of the house. 9 foot ceilindgs with various WAF absorption and a new diagonal placement.

I have the RS3 and I really like them. I have a small room (
10X12) and (in my opinion) they are easy to drive and sound very transparent with a great deal of resolution. They replaced a pair of Monitor Audio RS6, which excited and overloaded the room with excessive bass. The RS3 seems much more balanced to me, and also much smoother. Thanks and good luck.
