    Well my new 'toy's' are sounding just fine

    Initially I did not like them but I put that down to them being new and a bit 'tight'

    They certainly have a VERY musical sound to them

    They are growing on me every time I listen to them, and they are playing right now and sounding very good indeed... so at low volumes they also sound very good which is important to me as I sometimes listen late into the night and don't want to upset the neighbours...

    Are they speaker heaven? I don't know yet to be honest... but I like what I hear so far... they are certainly the most 'foot tapping' sound I have heard so far speaker wise....

    When new tightness can be a problem, but will soon loosen off with use

    Oh my god! There's nothing wrong with the bidet is there?

    “Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".

    “You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”

    "You don't have free will. You have the appearance of free will.”

    “There's a war out there, old friend. A world war. And it's not about who's got the most bullets. It's about who controls the information. What we see and hear, how we work, what we think... it's all about the information!”

    I also should not have worried about the Oto driving these speakers as the Audio Note seems very happy indeed with the RS3's...

    In fact the only speaker that I have tried the Audio Note with that it wasn't quite happy with is the LS 3/5a's which is probably not surprising due to the insensitivity of them and maybe also the relatively complicated crossover these speakers use..

    I am also wondering what they would sound like with some form of Rega amp..... I have never heard a Rega amp but the Elex-R and Elicit-R sound good from the reviews... maybe I should try one

    Anyone throw any light on either of those Rega amps ?
