We confess we have taken a slight detour with this turntable set-up. If funds are tight you can bring the overall system price down to less than £1000 by replacing the speakers with their 12.1 standmount siblings – although you would still need to budget for stands to place them on, of course. And we don’t often include floorstanders in our systems, so this seems a splendid opportunity.
We didn’t have any pause for thought about the other two pieces of electronics in this set-up, though. The Rega pairing here is rather a no-brainer at this sort of money; and the family ties lend a lovely synergy that can only improve the sound the duo provides.
