Easy to set up. Just like Rega\u2019s DACs, this phono preamp delivers a full-bodied sound. It stands out for its clear and detailed sound. In our listening room, we\u2019ve noticed that this unit takes a no-nonsense approach: no unnecessary frills, just pure, focused signal boosting. What stands out is the precise reproduction of the lower frequencies without compromising the rest of the spectrum. A really great unit in its price range!      <\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"specification-item row-odd\"><span class=\"spec-content\">Retail price: 390.00<\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"specification-item row-header\"><span class=\"spec-content\"><strong>General description<\/strong><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"specification-item row-even\"><span class=\"spec-content\">This phono preamplifier design is specifically tuned for moving-coil cartridges and offers a fixed gain setting of 63.5 dB with an input impedance of 400 ohms and a capacitance of 4,700 pF. This ensures optimal signal integrity and accuracy. The enclosure is made entirely of aluminum and designed to minimize interference. Optional custom load settings are available for users with unique requirements. The internal circuits have been carefully designed to deliver the highest performance. An external power supply unit improves power delivery, while the four-layer printed circuit board ensures optimized signal paths and reduced noise for pure audio transmission.     <\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"specification-item row-header\"><span class=\"spec-content\"><strong>Rega Fono MC MK4 Specifications<\/strong><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"specification-item row-even\"><span class=\"spec-content\">Input impedance: 63.5 k\u03a9 Input capacitance: 100 pF Gain: 69.5 dB Frequency response: 13 Hz \u2013 100 kHz (-3 dB) Signal-to-noise ratio: &gt; 80 dB Channel separation: &gt; 70 dB at 1 kHz Total harmonic distortion (THD): &lt; 0.02% Maximum output level: 11.5 V RMS Supply voltage: 24 V external<\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"specification-item row-header\"><span class=\"spec-content\"><strong>Background information<\/strong><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"specification-item row-even\"><span class=\"spec-content\">The Rega Fono MC MK4 is a carefully designed phono preamplifier, specifically tuned for moving-coil cartridges. Rega\u2019s design philosophy focuses on simplicity, functionality, and pure sound. The chassis is solid and minimalist, constructed from high-quality materials for optimal sound isolation. Internal components, such as the amplifier stages, are selected for their performance and durability. The internal wiring is strategically laid out to minimize noise and interference, and production takes place primarily in the UK, with Rega strictly selecting high-quality materials.    <\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"specification-item row-header\"><span class=\"spec-content\"><strong>Brand history<\/strong><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"specification-item row-even\"><span class=\"spec-content\">Rega was founded in 1973 by Roy Gandy, a mechanical engineer with a passion for music and vinyl records. Gandy began building turntables as a hobby, applying his engineering knowledge to create high-precision equipment. The name &#8220;Rega&#8221; is a combination of the first two letters of his first name and last name.  <\/p>\n<p>In the early years, Gandy worked from a small workshop and produced the first turntables with limited resources. The brand gradually gained recognition in specialized circles for its attention to detail and high quality standards. Rega remained true to manufacturing in the United Kingdom, with a focus on craftsmanship.  <\/p>\n<p>In addition to Gandy, Terry Bateman, who joined the company in 1981, played a crucial role in the development of electronic components. The brand continued to evolve with contributions from a small, dedicated team. <\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Description Freakuence! Compact phono preamp.
