Rega Planar 1 Turntable

The state-of-the-art Planar 1 from Rega is the company's most user-friendly deck so far, with a preset bias force on the newly developed RB110 tonearm - the Planar 1 is essentially ready from the box. All that's required is for the balance weight to be slipped onto the back of the tonearm as far as it will go, remove the stylus guard, and then hear your music as it as intended to be heard.

 Rega IO Integrated Amplifier

Rega has set out to disrupt the sub £500 integrated amplifier market with their new IO integrated amplifier. This all-new amplifier is based on one of our favourites, the award-winning Brio.

 The pre-amplifier features a motorised, high-quality ALPS Blue stereo volume potentiometer, under control via both IR remote(included) or chunky front panel knob. The new IO features a high-quality Moving Magnet phono input stage, for simple connection to a turntable (We recommend the Rega Planar 1 or Planar 2), along with two additional line-level inputs for connection to a CD Player or Network Streamer. The IO also features a high-quality headphone output and a hefty 30 Watts per channel capable of driving any bookshelf speaker and even some floor standing speakers, thanks to it's generously rated toroidal mains power transformer, high current bridge rectifier and high quality, long life smoothing capacitors. The new iO amplifier pairs perfectly with Rega's new Kyte loudspeakers but would also work well with most high-quality loudspeakers on the market.

The 6th generation of the Monitor Audio Bronze series has undergone an upgrade in both performance and build quality. The new cabinet design has been refreshed with a separate contrasted baffle to reveal a sleek, modern and simplistic design to suit all modern interiors whilst delivering high-quality sound. The new51/2” (140 mm) and 8” (200 mm) drivers have been intricately engineered to optimise the audio experience, coupled with a tweeter, which boasts a carefully designed waveguide that integrates seamlessly into the architecture of the baffle. With the addition of the Bronze AMS Dolby Atmos®enabled speakers, the new Bronze series provides a complete package for any music or movie enthusiast
