Introducing the Rega – io – Amplifier

Introducing the Rega – io – Amplifier, an electronic symphony of top-quality sound design crafted for music lovers everywhere. This compact, easily operable device promises to blend seamlessly into any hi-fi system, commanding its performance far beyond its economical price point.

Modelled from the expertise behind the multi-award-winning Brio, the Rega – io Amplifier boasts the same premium power amplifier and phono stage, repackaged into a smaller, cost-effective unit. It sports a high-end built-in MM (moving magnet) phono stage and two line level inputs. Rega’s attention to detail shines in the cleverly integrated headphone output, which guarantees unsurpassed performance without any audio circuit compromise.

The Rega io flaunts its one-of-a-kind class A/B circuit that shares its roots proudly with Rega’s other esteemed amplifiers. It resonates through handpicked components such as Sanken output transistors and an Alps volume potentiometer and a linear power supply capable of outputting 30 watts per channel into 8 ohms.

Ready to take your audio source to the next level, the Rega io delivers two line level inputs and a stellar quality moving magnet phono input. The front of the compact powerhouse also presents a headphone output, by propensity of the unit’s power amplifier stage via relays – thereby ensuring no signal degradation when inserting headphones or muting the device.

Each Rega – io – Amplifier comes with a redesigned mini remote control handset. It plays host to an array of specifications offering a highly responsive frequency range between 15 Hz and 40 kHz for the phono and 12 Hz to 43 kHz for the line. The power outputs can comfortably accommodate 230/115 V supply voltage with a capacity to produce 30 W RMS through both channels into an 8 Ω rated load.

Other technical features include source impedance of 109 Ω, power consumption of 135 W at 230 V / 220 V / 115 V / 100 V into an 8 Ω load, and standard hi-fi headphone compatibility for various impedance ranges. The unit is safely equipped with fuse ratings for different voltage standards.

Tipping the scales at 2.9 Kg, its sleek dimensions (180 x 290 x 68 mm) point towards a weighty performance in a feather-light package. Sleek, powerful, and tuned for optimal musical performance, the Rega – io – Amplifier transforms everyday sound into magnificent musical experiences. Make audio magic in your home with a device designed to amplify your love for music— the Rega – io – Amplifier.
