Why repeating Queen Forever recently released as a vinyl boxset?
There is no band in the whole world that releases a GH album on vinyl as part of a boxset.

the GHs would be overkill - so i agree with them not being included
The Live albums would have been nice - but are not ready for CD or digital release yet... really hoping for big plans... Also if you include Live Killers and Live Magic... then shouldn't we also get Wembley, BBC, Montreal, the Bowl and the Rainbow Shows? so i agree with this as again - it would be going overboard for one instalment... we go from 18 discs to an additional 2+1+3+1+3+3+4, for a total of 35 discs... then we can say...well what about the bonus tracks on the latest CD release? again... it;s getting expensive.
Using US dollars... a regular RP1 goes for roughly 450$... now they're adding the 24v motor - which goes for about 100$... custom queen logos.,.. maybe another 75$. I don't think 625$ is out of the question...maybe 725$ with the optional Bias 2 cartridge (which normally goes for 150).
to compare... an RP1 (rb101 arm + 12V motor + carbon cart) retails at 450$. an RP3 (rb303 arm + 24v motor + NO cart) retails around 900$... so really this should sit somewhere in the middle. IF the Queen rega goes for anything more than 650 without a cartridge... and you don't need the "Queen" logo but you are in the budget for the turntable and want an incredible one for value... buy the RP3 instead. Sounds miles better than the RP1, you "can" upgrade if you ever wish and best of all it carries a close to MSRP resale value.

Correct - which is what i said... for the RP1... but the Queen Rega has upgraded features in comparison to the RP1... and will be a collector's item... it will go for more... probably close to what i had previously mentioned.

Oh..sorry...den gibt es schon im Queen Online Store. Dort wird/ wurde er für 424 €uro angeboten. Der Versand könnte ein weiterer Faktor sein :)
Edit : Oder besser gesagt, er WAR dort gelistet. Was die da im Moment veranstalten verstehe ich nicht wirklich. Eine alternative Quelle
( whathifi.com) gibt einen Preis von ca. 350 GBP an

Yes, the price WAS listed 424 Euro for the Queen/Rega turntable, but that information vanished somehow...
WhatHifi.com mentioned a price around 350 GBP.
I get this message from the German Rega distribution:
vielen Dank für ihr Interesse an der neuen Rega Queen Edition. Der Plattenspieler basiert auf
unserem Rega RP 1, weicht aber in einigen Bauteilen wie Hochglanzboard, Plattenteller –Matte usw.
vom Standard-Modell ab. Die erstmalige Auslieferung erfolgt Ende September, wird also ab dann bei unseren
autorisierten Rega Händlern zum Verkauf stehen. Der VK-Preis für diese weltweit auf 2000 Stück limitierte Version
liegt bei 500,-€; bei Interesse ist eine Reservierung aufgrund der begrenzten Stückzahlen für Deutschland sinnvoll.

I've seen someone online state that they have reserved one of the turntables and it was £375.
Apparently you can only get them in store at dealers and not online?

400 piece are exclusively reserved for the UK market.
So I guess preordering would be the only way to get one :(
queenboot · Member since
preordered in Germany and confirmed
so there are only 199 pieces for Germany, Austria and Switzerland :-)
