Rega Elicit-R

摘要

Of late, Rega has branched out into electronics with not inconsiderable success. The Elicit-R is a recent arrival that's a little different, as it has a built-in MM phono stage that can be switched to a line-level input via a rear panel switch if desired. Rega says it's of especially high quality, so should be used for your best audio source.Inside, the Elicit-R's power amplifier circuitry is based on a complementary pair of Darlington output transistors forming an emulated Class-A driver stage. This is fed by a discrete FET line preamp complete with programmable stepped attenuator volume control. Rega says that polypropylene capacitors are featured throughout the signal path, and the new R version gets improved power supplies which take the power output up a bit over the old model.
