New Electronics from Rega: Meet the Aria Mk3 phono stage and the Io Integrated Amp

First up, Rega's new Io integrated amp ($595) is a scaled-down version of their popular Brio Amp ($995). At 30w output compared to the Brio's 50w, and 2 line level inputs compared to 4 line level inputs in the Brio, otherwise the products are quite similar, both including Moving Magnet phono stage inputs and Headphone outputs standard. The Io could be ideal for small systems with big ambitions! Already 5 star-rated in this review in What HI*FI?

The Aria Mk3 ($1495) is the third generation, stand-alone MM/MC phono stage from Rega. In fact this is two phono stages in one chassis with separate circuitry optimized for each of the Moving Magnet and Moving Coil inputs, with each running off their own sub-power supplies.
