I will preface this query with a little history, i am first and foremost a viny lover, many years ago i cherished my sondek, kairn, 3 x LK140, Aktiv Keilidh set up, however after a sale and botched emmigration, i returned to my vinyl love on a much smaller scale. i now love the simplicity of my Rega RP3, Grado, PSU and Brio R, my current speakers - some very nice Monitor Audio BR2's are about to be upgraded and im torn! I have a budget of £700 and I know that I can get a set of B Grade Rega RS5's for £698 which is a bargain but my desire to not blow my budget makes me wonder whether i might find a good jump for a little less cash. I know the BX 5's at £499 will be a jump from my BR 2's, I also hear a lot of good things about Q Acoustics 2050i's, maybe even a second hand pair of Monitor Audio Silver's would be an option. there are so many possibilities, im looking for some actual usage input to narrow my choices. I'm curious if anyone has any experience of these speakers, I have very eclectic tastes musically. My traditional album tests would be the acoustic Bombay Bicycle Club, Radiohead - In Rainbows, Dave Brubeck Time Out.Hopefully that will tell you that Im looking for subtlety and response, defined but not over powering bass and a good sounbstage. Am i wasting my time looking further than the RS5's
