Rega Brio R is British Hi-Fi at its Best, Claims Doug Brady Hi-Fi

    CHESHIRE, ENGLAND, November 05, 2011 /24-7PressRelease/ -- The What Hi-Fi Awards are a highlight in any Hi-Fi lovers calendar, offering insight into the best Hi-Fi products coming to the market each year. With an often bewildering choice, narrowing down the options to a best in budget choice can be a big help when considering a stereo amplifier. According to both What Hi-Fi Magazine and Doug Brady Hi-Fi, in the GBP400-GBP700 price band there is only a choice of one this year however, and that is the latest Rega Brio R stereo amplifier.

Rega has long been producing high-quality amps and turntables, and the Rega Brio R continues that fine tradition. The latest award is well deserved according to Doug Brady Hi-Fi MD Charles Clowes. "The Rega Brio R is GBP150 more than the third generation model, but the extra cost has allowed for considerable improvements to be made. It is now in a class all of its own." The latest Rega Brio R is in keeping with a trend for downsizing equipment, and the half casing design similar to the Rega's compact DAC, and is sure to be attractive for anyone with limited shelf space.

The Rega Brio R is the first remote controlled stereo amp offered by Rega, but other new features are scarce. It has been greatly simplified and stripped down to the bare essentials; a common hallmark of a Rega product. Cutting back on the extras allows for higher quality components to be used, and in this department there has been no holding back and the Rega Brio R has put all GBP150 into pure performance. The moving magnet phono stage has been improved for this 4th generation release for better performance with Rega's latest turntables, the power supply is generous, and users benefit from Rega's exceptional custom made components.

"The Rega Brio R is a musical and agile amplifier with beautiful dynamics and great volume. Considering its compact dimensions, it can produce remarkably big sound. It will give a great soundstage to a Hi-Fi, turntable or DAB radio or set of separates" says Clowes.
