My name is Jorge, I have had different kind of gear during my life but I decided 4 years ago to go back to basics. Currently I have a Rega Planar 3, Marantz PM7005, Carver TFM-6CB, Marantz CD6005, Bluesound Node 2i, Ascend speakers Sierra 2, SVS sb 1000 subwoofer, and for my dining romm Definive speakers and sw. I listen to all kind of music and love almost everything but rap.
After presenting my self I would like to hear some comments regarding my concern about my new Rega Planar 3 which I bought about three weeks ago and I set it up with a Tangospinner subplatter and an Ortofon 2M Red cartridge that I had in my old RP1 where sounded very rounded, pleasant and nice. I’m very pleased with the P3 mainly with the clarity and definition that I get in all solo instruments or jazz trios, but when it comes to a passage full of sound or when I have Etta James or Plácido Domingo singing loud, I feel a harsh not so pleasant sound, mainly in mid range frequencies. I don't know if the Red is not performing as it used to do in the RP1 where it had a warm and rounded sound or do I have to fit a different cart in the Planar 3.
I’ll appreciate all comments and suggestions.
