Meant to say that since posting my original comment, I've found out we're due to get the Rega Isis and Osiris for review before the Bristol Show; should be in our April issue, on sale early March - just after you all get back from the Show!
I heard the Isis with B&W 802D's and 18 grand of amplification (MF / Ayre). TBH it didn't sound that exciting to me !!! Well built though - the remote weighed about 10kg alone!
Also heard that Rega will be coming out with some pricey tube kit very soon. If true, a valved isis and osiris are on the horizon. For the life of me though, I can't imagine just how expensive these will turn out...
