Signature Rega sound in a highly accessible package
-

To pack such performance into this price point, Rega has, as with most of its amplifiers, stuck with analogue-only connections with the io. Analogue-only is common at this end of the market, and so the io sports two line-level inputs – two fewer than its step-up sibling the Brio – and a moving-magnet phono input, so you can hook up a turntable as well as a couple of other components such as a CD player and streamer.
A 3.5mm headphone jack completes the io’s fairly modest connectivity list. It sits on the front panel alongside a volume dial and a small plastic button that cycles through the inputs. The amp’s plastic front panel gives it a pretty unremarkable aesthetic. In this respect, Rega certainly isn’t trying to hide the fact that most of its efforts have gone into the performance.
The compact, half-width aluminium chassis feels well built – the same goes for the satisfyingly simple remote control – and its low-key design should suit some hi-fi traditionalists.
Punchy dynamics
The discrepancies between Rega’s two half-width boxes in terms of physical size and decorative refinement is more or less mirrored in their sonic differences.

Pro-Ject nails the affordable Bluetooth turntable recipe
There are some combinations that work beautifully, even if you wouldn't necessarily consider putting them together in the first place. Beans on toast is an odd combination when you think about it, as is surf and turf, while carrots in a cake has no right to be as good as it is. Mixing poached eggs with smoked salmon is essentially combining poultry and fish, but no one complains when a bougie brunch spot has Eggs Royale on the menu, do they?
