REDGUM RGS Regnans
By naming these Floorstanding loudspeakers the “Regnans”, we were promising to not design anything bigger in the future and that still holds true! The tallest and most majestic of all Eucalyptus trees, the Mountain Ash (Eucalyptus regnans) reigns above the forest canopy to heights approaching (if not equaling) California’s Giant Sequoias. Such heights can only be attained by being deeply rooted and the dynamic range created by the Regnans’ sound bears witness to this solid grounding. The realism of the musical experience lies in the inherent flexibility from there on up. “… rich resonant sound melts from their drive units like honey.” * This is in no small part due to the attention to detail at the cellular level of this 2-way 3 driver speaker as handcrafted in Australia … using exclusively high-voltage metalized polypropylene caps … very heavy 1.5mm wire for the bass coil … all connections silver soldered … internal hook-up to the woofers with dual 12 AWG OFC copper plus 6AWG from the rear terminals to the crossover.
REDGUM RGS Lucens
REDGUM’s original Floorstanders were released as the RGS38i in 1998 completing our 2 Channel system range. They were the ones that ‘froze’ the downstairs area of the Melbourne Home Entertainment show when we played the Chinese Drum track. The same speaker that had the light fittings rattling at the Melbourne Audio Club hall for the first time in the Club’s history! All good, very clean fun! Now in this era of “makeovers” they have evolved internally into the RGS Lucens Floorstanding Loudspeakers … maintaining the same “body build” but with the added muscle of drivers shielded with dual magnets and consultant-designed crossovers. The family resemblance is more than skin deep … though what a glowing complexion the real Red Gum wood veneer adds to any room!
