Description
A No-Compromise Amplifier with One Goal
The Rega Aethos stereo amplifier is housed in a custom designed case and built around a dual mono architecture, employing four 160W 16-amp output transistors per channel to deliver 156W per channel into 6 Ohms. Using a custom wound toroidal transformer and regulated supplies for the sensitive amplification and driver stages, the pre-amplifier stage uses Class A discrete circuitry throughout. Rega have taken the design concepts underpinning the multi-award winning Elex-R and Elicit-R and propelled the performance to the next level with a 125W dual mono design featuring fully discrete FET based line amplification, polypropylene capacitors throughout the signal path, K-Power reservoir capacitors, a power amplifier regulated supply, and a high current output stage comprising four 160W Sanken output transistors per channel. The headphone socket has been integrated such that the speaker switching is performed by the output mute relay to avoid obstructing the signal path.
