Seems very solid and I could easily live with the sound for the next few years. Very enjoyable.Not just me then Rusty.
Nice transport in that player Del, bet it doesn’t misbehave very often.

Just wondering how many RX5 owners there might be amongst us. Following the 3 star What Hi Fi? review when they appeared I get the impression they may not go on many people's shortlist's when in the market for new speakers. I picked up a pair at a reduced price from my dealer recently though, after A/B-ing them against my previous Kudos X-2's, their smaller siblings, the RX3's and some ATC SMC19's, against all of which they compared favourably, giving me exactly the increase in scale of presentation and sound stage I was looking for. I think listeners may be missing out - I find myself feeling somewhat evangelical and can't help feeling they don't really get a fair crack of the whip compared to present 'go-to' recommendations. Anyone else had a similar experience with them? (No affiliation to Rega btw, simply a happy purchaser/owner.)
They do when they are emptyDo Rega cartons lack gravitas?
A pity as I’ve always seen Rega as offering good vfm. Your experience is just about the only one I’ve come across regarding the new Kytes. I had a thought to trying them out a while ago (would require hours of driving) but could find almost no user reports on them. Perhaps this is why?Fwiw, the only Rega speaker I've any experience of is the new Kyte, which seems to be grossly overpriced for the less than impressive sound it makes.
It's amazing how opinions differ, but it would be a very boring world if we all had the same tastes.

I would hope it wasn't indicative of the Rega speaker range as a whole.
