Any stand recommendation(s) for Rega RS-1

Would like to put as close to wall as possible. Thanks.

Linn Kan 2 Stands may do the job if you can find a pair- can't get much closer to a rear wall , that's for sure. Not sure if the Rega's like a heavier stand? The Kan 2 is an open frame design which does not allow for fillers..Good luck!

ATB,

Being rear ported, they will need to be a reasonable distance from the wall, say a foot or so.

Rega make a wall bracket for the RS1, so they must think they are OK close to a wall. Of course that's not what one would expect from a rear ported speaker, but who knows...

The RS1 can go as close to the rear wall as possible and that's exactly where I had the best results , with them mounted on very heavy Partington Dreadnought Broadside stands.

Picture from the time ....

Thanks for the Tip. Like those and have also been recommended the Atacama. Hard to find in the US though.
