** Footnote re REDGUM CDP/DAC Reviews:
When reading any reviews about the REDGUM RGCD2, RGCD5/RGCD5ENR models, you are hearing about the sound of each related DAC model (when sold as a stand-alone product). In other words, to find out what a RGDAC5 sounds like, then read any review for a RGCD5 or RGCD5ENR (aka the RGCD5 plus a filter upgrade). For the RGDAC2, read reviews for the RGCD2.

REDGUM Splendens (Pre – Power)
The more power it gives you, well, the more words fail us to describe the SPLENDENS! Except for the obvious >250W/ch (8Ω).
The clue is in its origins. Simply put, take the the RGM175 Monoblock System (175W/ch), upgrade it to the Signature Series RGM175ENR (200W/ch). And then let it quietly evolve over the years.
Having now morphed into the Splendens Monoblock Pre-Power System, it still brings together the the principles of the RG175p Dual Mono Volume Passive Preamp with two RG175ENRm Signature Series Monoblock Power Amplifiers. And then some.
So while you are finding the words for it in the music, watch out, too, for what the musicians are thinking!!

REDGUM RGS Manna
First presented as the RGS28i, these are the little speakers that stunned them in England, even back in 1998. In fact, spontaneous ovations during Shows have been known to break out after their performance! Continuing as a 2-way, 2 driver system, they were re-designed internally as the RGSB Bookshelf Loudspeaker (christened Manna*) … using exclusively high-voltage metallized polypropylene caps … heavy 1mm wire for the bass coil … all connections silver soldered … and internal hook-up throughout with 12 AWG OFC copper. Handcrafted in Australia, they are not just a stunning looker with their gloss finish over real Red Gum wood veneer, but as well they amaze all who listen to them!
