Gone All Rega !!

TBH, if the Tucana isn't better at driving the PLs - given the price difference - I'd be shocked. "Knock me over with a feather, Trevor.":cheers:

That wasn't my point.

Rick, what speakers have you heard with the Brio-R other than the Rega ones?

Cheers, :cheers: and Merry Christmas to you too!

Hi Matthew

I've used the Brio-R with other makes of speakers such as Monitor Audio's BX2's/Silver RX6's/Silver RX1's/GX50's/PL200's, Dynaudio's DM 2/6's, Acoustic Energy Reference 1's/Reference 2's, Proac Tablette Anniversary/D18's, ATC's SCM11 monitors etc.

All the best

Hi Rick,

What did you think of the Brio-R with the D18?

And how does it fare against a Nait XS in your opinion?

The Brio R is £498

The Nait XS is £1495

Albeit I love the Brio R but logic suggests that a £1500 Naim amp will be better at controlling D18s....However with the new Elicit R coming out looks like the Nait XS will have some serious competition!

Well, I've read about Brio-R controlling Magnepans and Martin Logan's with ease and I've seen people preferring the Brio-R over the Nait XS but this comes all to a matter of taste, of course. Costing 3x more does not mean it's 3x better...

yes i know that 3 x cost does not equal 3 x better!

I have not heard a Nait XS but as I said Logic suggests........so I do agree with you & yes the Brio R is a fanrtastic amp for the money and I preferred it to a Nait 5i!
