Just a quick update, to where I'm at. I eventually got all my stuff out of storage, and now have my old system set up, although my speakers (Mission 760s) are just on the floor and windowsill, I still haven't located my stands in the jumble of boxes! As many of you advised, I did indeed need...

What is the problem with the Rega Kytes? Thanks.

How do you think Rega Kytes would go with the Nait 3? A local music shop (without a listening room) has them at €469., For price comprisions here in Ireland, I could get the Mission QX2s, MA. Bronzes, & Dali Oberon 1s for €449 each and the Wharfedales for €339, but all would be ordered...

The only localish shop that sells, proper HiFi equipment has im speakers: Denon Ceol SC N10 for €125; Kef 350s €525;, or Q Acoustics 3010i €185, it has those specific 3 speakers not the full brand ranges and doesn't AFAIK have a listening room, the HiFi is just a side range to other business...

Most Speaker brands that are available in the UK would be available in Ireland, and if not could probably be ordered online from UK suppliers. One easy example is Richer Sounds who have a '.ie' site that seems to charge the roughly same prices as their '.com' UK site.

I am just going through getting my HiFi equipment and records/cds out of a 10 year enforced storage. I have a Rega Planar 2 turntable and a Naim Nait 3 amp both purchased in the 2000s, - the turntable new and the amp was 2nd hand - but had been serviced by Naim prior to my purchase. I also...
