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.

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 2.5-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.
The immediacy of the performance flows with absolute authority as the Regnans relish the attack of transients in excess of 600 WRMS. With slam as tight as the rigid construction of their cabinets, they are braced for any style of music you want to throw at them. The precision of a light-hearted instrumental solo unfolds with as much presence as a full orchestra. Just as with the slightly smaller Lucens Floorstander, the impact of a piece is not just a mental concept.
In short, the tallest REDGUM loudspeakers look gorgeous with a total skin of real Red Gum wood veneer and solid inlay lovingly handcrafted in Australia. Outstanding as they stand out spectacularly clean!

REDGUM RGCD5ENR CD Player & RGDAC5
Now SUPERCEDED.
But if History is your thing, read on because the Signature Series RGCD5ENR and its DAC, the RGDAC5, were first released in 1998. In fact, to be more accurate, how they have evolved into the RGDAC8 actually started back in 1997 with what was known as the “Ugly DAC-ling”. (This was due to its lack of a drive so it had to be given its ‘5’ a little later.)
Looking back to the story that continued on into 2019 …
REDGUM RGH900-1 5.1 Power Amplifier
150W (8Ω) x 6 Channel Home Theatre Power Amplifier
Originally released as the award-winning* RGH900, this Home Theatre amplifier remains the same in all things (other than now claiming to be the first of that model number, i.e. RGH900-1). It is designed for the audiophile, with sonics that ‘flatten’ the competition.
Still with its original power giving 6 channels of 150WRMS and all full frequency – from explosions to The Eagles, make those Home Theatre speakers jump to attention and return the magic to movie soundtracks!

REDGUM Aquilina (Integrated)
When the Signature Series RGi60ENR first appeared with 75WRMS/ch in 2004 as the upgraded version of the original RGi60, the RGi60ENR offered the transformer, power supply and output stages used in the original (1993) RGi120!
But that was over a decade ago! And the power ‘bracket creep’ has continued! So now it is high time to cut to the chase and name names as to what this RGi60ENR has become in the Amplifolia range – at 120W/ch, the AQUILINA.
REDGUM Articulata (Integrated)
The ARTICULATA is the ultimate REDGUM integrated amplifier for those who demand the best. Which is a breeze to attain with 200Wpc on offer. When this Signature Series RGi120ENR amplifier was first created in 2001, it was based on our Award-winning RGi120 but with its output power boosted to 155Wpc. That made its actual ‘slam’ higher than ‘the original’ RGM175 Monoblocks!!! Time has moved on since then; so, too, has its power, accumulating without fanfare. Now renamed as part of the Amplifolia range, it definitely makes the music well worth one!
