If as I suspect, what you are saying is you like the Naim sound then there are shed load of options.
Would you consider second hand; if so you could put together a serious system with not that much expense.
Right off the bat I'd recommend mine: 72/Hicap/250, classic and quite special.
Speakers, the clear choice being Epos ES 14s (bungs in).
Front end, I run the LP12 and Karik.
Put this together and it will wipe the floor with your Rega.
Just a thought....
Naim CDX2.2what source do you recommend for the rega dac.
Naim CDX2.2
For now, this is my setup:
Squeezebox touch -> Rega Dac -> Nait XS -> Rega Rs5.
Can someone describe what the Rega 'house sound' sounds like?
To me, it sounds like it was voiced by someone who loves vinyl/analog reproduction, strived to imitate it even with digital sources. Leaning to a touch of warmth, avoiding a strikingly obvious separation of detail. Well balanced, so that no one frequency range stands out at the expense of others. Subtle power more than stunning. Maybe I wouldn't have thought of all that if I didn't already know they had a base in record players. Anyway, I like it. I find it quite consistent across Mira, Elicit, Apollo/Saturn.
