    Comparing the Rega Brio mk7 to the original mk1

    I recently purchased a Rega Brio mk7 after getting a new pair of fairly efficient speakers (Paradigm Premier 800F). I was astonished by how good the speakers sounded with my amp, an original Rega Brio mk1 from the early 90s. And so I plug in the Brio mk7 and proceed to do my normal listening...

    Newbie looking for the perfect amp for ELAC Debut F5

    Howdy aficionados, I'm looking to upgrade from an old Rega system (Rega Brio clamshell, Rega Kyte speakers and Rega Planar 2).

    Building; can you help with Rega subplatter measurements?

    I bought my son a turntable, entry level AT-LP60X - he's getting right into it! It's not horrible but speed is off and the adjustment screws are far too sensitive and hard to access. I got thinking about motor control and decided to try to build my own. Maybe I will waste money and time and...

    Is the preamp in Sony TA-F555ES any good?

    I use Sony TA-F555ES amp, which I think was once a very good amp, and which I love myself as well. It's time to send it in for some revisions (the wheel to choose between A or B speakers needs to be checked), but there is another issue that I'm not sure I should have the guy look at: the phono...
