    Will Rega Brio-R give me sweet engaging sound?

    The RS1s and Brio-R are an excellent match. Great detail and musicality. A touch on the warm side but that's what you get with Rega. Its phono stage is superb too, for the price. I'm biased as I love this combination. They may not quite have the bass you're looking for, but will really make...

    Recommend me a (moderately priced) streamer - Quad Vena?

    Intriguing. I have a pair of Adam A7xs knocking about that I used for music production. I have a feeling that these may be too clinical, but it's definitely worth a thought. Choice overload.

    Recommend me a (moderately priced) streamer - Quad Vena?

    Very interesting to read - thank you. Similarly I don't think I have audiophile ears, but I do have some background in audio production and mastering and think I may be quite fussy when listening. My ears could well be completely shot over the years of playing and going to gigs, so who can say...

    Recommend me a (moderately priced) streamer - Quad Vena?

    That CXN does look the part - but is right up there in terms of budget as you say. I think I may have to revise my budget upwards, listen to what I can and make a decision based on my ears - paying a bit more for something that I will enjoy is far more appealing to me than having the nagging...

    Recommend me a (moderately priced) streamer - Quad Vena?

    Belated update - was finally able to demo the Quad last week as a result of work commitments and demo cancellations. (Please note, I am not an audiophile, will probably use the wrong terms and my opinion in no way invalidates yours!) First impressions: Quad Vena with Quad S1 speakers. I...

    Recommend me a (moderately priced) streamer - Quad Vena?

    I think it would put me in the doghouse for years! I have booked a demo next week for the Quad and Marantz, will be interesting to see how they compare.

    Recommend me a (moderately priced) streamer - Quad Vena?

    That Cambridge does look excellent - so much choice! At least I'll have a good time demoing them

    Recommend me a (moderately priced) streamer - Quad Vena?

    Yes - I knew the Quad would be a good one - but maybe i'm being swayed by the name, I'll have to find a place to try them both out. Thanks

    Recommend me a (moderately priced) streamer - Quad Vena?

    Great - thank you - I've only just started looking at this sort of thing, with vinyl being my real love. I did think about a Sonos but i'm not sure I want to go down that road yet. The Marantz MCR611 looks very interesting - I'll have to give it a listen. Much appreciated!

    Recommend me a (moderately priced) streamer - Quad Vena?

    Hello folks, Hope you are all well. You are all very knowledgeable here, so I thought I'd ask for some advice. I'm looking for a streamer to put in my kitchen / dining room. It's not a particularly small room - roughly 5mx5m and I would prefer a separate to an all in one, though I'm all...
