Rega Brio, Apollo, and R3?


Anyone listening to this setup? I am looking for something to play jazz, blues, acoustic guitar music, and some classical. This is for a medium-sized living room - 12 x 17 ft.

The other option that I am thinking about is the Jolida 302b, Music Hall 25.2 CDP, and Quad 21Ls.

I know one is tube, the other is digital. I love the tube, but my wife is worried about the looks of the Jolida and where it is going to go. So, if I have to go digital on this, with the Rega set up get me close?

Thanks!!

The Rega combination will work out very well. I am using the Rega Apollo, Rega Ara (now the R1) and a Prima Luna Prologue 2 integrated tube amp (oops)in a room about your size and it is a very enjoyable system to listen to.

Another system to consider is a Music Hall 25.2 amp, 25.2 CD player, and EPOS M16i floorstanders (cost new all in about $3K). I have heard this set-up a number of times in the Music Hall room at the Stereophile audio show and absolutely love it.
