thanks for replies, I have a Rega RP3 with a Yamaha AS501, speakers are Tannoy V1, I like the sound but just fancied a bit more bass, I like Tannoy speakers, wish I had the room for some old 15 inch red or golds and the money, any how was just wondering what your thoughts were, have read the reviews and they seem quite favourable but it's always nice to hear actual user reviews, I don't mind if others don't like them, as said earlier opinions differ, my music is mainly 70s prog rock but I also like 60s pop, rock n roll and jazz, any how thanks for your replies.
