My first thought when seeing this thread was those MA952s. Reckon you wouldn't go wrong with them. And Monitor Audio always finished them well, so a bit of WAF too :)

Hi
thanks for the replies i am i right in thinking that the r952,s would have a brighter sound than the other 2 choices, and any idea if the r952 would be good at lower listening levels.
regards
Greg

Hi Greg,

My Ruarks are sold sorry.

Check out Rega R3’s, not on your short list but I rate them.
