New Rega Elicit

Thursday, April 28, 2022

 

Cementing the latest Rega "look", the new Elicit MK5 builds on the success of the mighty Aethos, but in a more affordable package, with a new DAC and Digital inputs. Sticking with Class A/B amplification, the Elicit MK5 kicks out a healthy 105wpc (into 8ohm), has a dedicated MM Phono stage, dedicated headphone circuit, Alps Volume Pontentiometer, brand new Pre Amp section, a handy dedicated HT/Power amp input and a Pre Out.

 

All this and alifetime Rega warranty against manufacturing faults. 

Our demo unit should be with us early May - call 0208 930 9933 to book a demo.

 

The all new Elicit MK5 stereo integrated amplifier is designed and built to the highest standard. Housed in our latest custom case to match the rest of the Rega range, the new MK5 builds on previous Rega designs by using our multi-award-winning Class A/B power amplifier circuit to deliver a powerful 105 W per channel into 8 Ω loads (127 W into 6 Ω). Our engineers have taken great care to incorporate a high-quality MM phono stage, the headphone input socket has been integrated such that the speaker switching is performed by the output mute relay so as not to obstruct the signal path. Our engineers have incorporated a new design Rega DAC offering digital connectivity and greater flexibility with a variety of other products. 

 

The Elicit MK5 now shares other design features taken directly from the highly acclaimed Aethos amplifier. You will find the same discrete FET based pre-amplifier circuit, plus an Alps volume potentiometer has been introduced to further improve sonic and technical performance. As you would expect, special attention has been paid to the selection of key audio components. Discrete circuitry, high-quality relays, polypropylene capacitors, and Sanken output transistors are used throughout the design.
