    Rega planar 2 or RP3

    I recently upgraded my TT and fancied the Rega P2. I auditioned the P2 and while I was there the guys brought out the new Planer 1 I have to say I was very surprised by the results, my ears could not really tell the difference, now I will say I enjoy listening to music rather than the equipment...

    What to look for in a *used* turntable for under £100?

    I had the chance to try an old Marantz 6010ose and I have to say the difference was quite staggering, the old Marantz gave me the sound I was looking for so the Cyrus will be put to one side, can't see me selling it as I'll probably only get peanuts for it. Going to try the PM6005, good reviews...

    Had them for about three months, and given them a good airing. I did read (after I purchased them !) that a hard dome tweeter can sound a little too lively?Bass extension with them is very impressive though.

    Good morning all, can you help? System: Rega Planer 1, Marantz CD6500, Cyrus Three with PSX, Monitor Audio Bronze 2. I am lucky enough to have a small man cave for my hifi about 3m square. So, tiny it may be but its all mine! I have recently been through an upgrade on my equipement although I...
