The all new IO Amplifier is designed with every music lover in mind. Simple to set up and operate the IO is designed to integrate seamlessly into any hi-fi system. The compact size allows it to be used in a variety of systems and delivers performance well beyond its price point. As you would expect there is a high-quality built-in MM (moving magnet) phono stage two line-level inputs a redesigned mini remote control handset and a high-quality headphone output that is cleverly integrated to deliver optimum performance without compromising the audio circuit. The IO uses the same power amplifier and phono stage as its larger brother the multi-award-winning Brio. The IO aims to deliver exceptional sound quality in a smaller and more cost-effective package. The class A/B circuit shares its DNA with the rest of Regas amplifiers and as usual great care has been taken in component selection. Sanken output transistors and an Alps volume potentiometer and a linear power supply that enables output of 30 watts per channel into 8 ohms. Two line-level inputs and a high quality moving magnet phono input are available as sources. There is a headphone output provided on the front of the unit for powering standard hi-fi headphones; this is driven from the power amplifier stage of the unit through relays to avoid signal degradation when headphones are inserted or the product is muted. A new remote handset is included as well. Features Integrated amp with Class A/B circuitry High-quality built-in MM (moving magnet) phono stage Two line-level inputs for source components Redesigned mini wireless remote control (batteries included) High-quality headphone output Sanken output transistors Alps volume potentiometer Linear power supply What's in the Box IO Amplifier Wireless Remote Control (batteries included) Specifications Power outputs at 230/115 V supply voltage30 W RMS both channels driven into the rated load of 8 Input 1 (Phono) input sensitiv

 Absolutely not a whisper from the speakers even when the volume is turned to maximum. It’s not until my ear is against the tweeter that I can hear the faintest hiss. The sound is much cleaner, precise, and neutral. The io is warmer and thicker and may pair with brighter speakers

4 and it sounds great! It’s punchy, textured, and gets me closer to the tube bass I was experiencing with the A10 and A20 than anything else I’ve tried, but also has a bit better control. The headphone out, mostly the same applies. Compared to the 9150, BTR5, and heaven forbid my Pixel 4a headphone out, the io had more substance and texture, bringing more life to the music.  And so what’s not to like? The buzzing and overall noise

 But the io simply sounds more musical than the 9150, to the point where I would not keep the RP600M if I had to listen to them on the 9150, but I would keep them if on the io. I’m currently using it with the Chane A5.4 and it sounds great! It’s punchy, textured, and gets me closer to the tube bass I was experiencing with the A10 and A20 than anything else I’ve tried, but also has a bit better control. The headphone out, mostly the same applies

 Tubes were the only thing that made the RP600M come to life. Thankfully, the io gave me the best of both words -- reliability and carefree nature of solid state, with the textured, warm, and more filled-out sound of tubes. While it still isn’t on the level as the Reisong A10 with gold lions or stock A20, the compromise of not being a tube amp makes up for it. Indeed, I preferred its sound over the CXA60, TA100, 9150, Sprout100, but not the PA3s

Tube-ish sound, but at what cost?

A little introduction, I'm first an electronics collector, rather than an audiophile; however, I do appreciate quality sound when I hear it. The amplifiers that I own, and have owned, are generally under $1500. The same with speakers and prices. Bookshelf to Tower: Paradigm, Monitor Audio, Polk, Infinity, JBL, Pioneer, etc

 seriously. It sounds good, but it's not the cleanest sounding amplifier; there is a notable amount of distortion that slowly creeps in with the volume set at 11 o'clock, and only gets worse when you turn it past that. A lot of people may not notice it, but I did, compared to a NAD C316 BEE, Yamaha RS202, and a Yamaha AS501 that I also own. All three of them play cleaner, and the NAD wins in terms of transparency to my ears

 A lot of people may not notice it, but I did, compared to a NAD C316 BEE, Yamaha RS202, and a Yamaha AS501 that I also own. All three of them play cleaner, and the NAD wins in terms of transparency to my ears. Yes, even the entry level Yamaha RS202 sounded a little bit cleaner. Manufacturers often publish specs that fudge the facts

 It uses a fat little Toroidal transformer, but there are NO heat sinks, Rega instead designed the body/chassis to absorb heat, keep the amplifier cool. Not sure how well this design would work if you really played it loud and for hours with inefficient speakers? My guess, it would probably surrender. It has a nice and full sound, and a surprising amount of bass for its power output. The tempo and timing are great, and that is for Jazz, Metal, Country, and Pop

The interesting Rega io

 I haven't heard EVERY amp under $1k, but I've owned and/or heard many of them, including some heavy hitters like the current darlings from Cambridge and Rotel. If you can live with three inputs, no internal DAC, and a no-frills basic design (they put the budget into the guts, not the outside, which looks like a metal box), the Rega IO is the best sounding amp under $1k that I've ever heard, full stop.

I read other reviewers on here saying that other sub-$1k amps sound better (Yamaha - seriously?). I have no clue what they're talking about.

Best Sounding sub-$1k Amp

.. Enter the Rega IO! I am actually stunned by the sound of this little amplifier. Music sounds like music and I can't stop listening! I am using this unit with small Neat Iota speakers and this wonderful combination

This amplifier is simply amazing.

 Using it with a miniDSP to have a sub out. Over all sound is great. Volume nob is set at 9 o'clock and an average 30-45 percent volume on windows. Sitting about a feet and a half away from both speakers

Driving my LS50 Meta on my desk pretty well. No complain here. Using it with a miniDSP to have a sub out. Over all sound is great

Best small amp to drive desktop setup

 But honestly, if you save your ears and listen at appropriate levels, the IO serves 4 ohm speakers well.

 Another port is for my 4K TV (Apple streaming and movies/TV). Everything sounds incredible. This amp is definitely meant for 6-8 ohm speakers (I drive Wharfedale 225s) but if I don't need it shaking the walls will bass, at moderate to high levels, it (surprisingly) runs my ELAC UB5s incredibly well. I was expecting distortion with the UB5, but got none

 Sounded soooo good. But, the IO ran hot. But honestly, if you save your ears and listen at appropriate levels, the IO serves 4 ohm speakers well.

Everything I need. Nothing I don't. Sounds great.

 I have the amp connected to a pair of Wharfedale 12.2 speakers and a Cambridge Audio CD player. I have the system set up in a small bedroom, along with my Apple iMac computer. My speakers are toed inward and the soundstage is amazing

 I have the system set up in a small bedroom, along with my Apple iMac computer. My speakers are toed inward and the soundstage is amazing. I'm hearing good detail with my "old ears". The only thing to mention, is the unit gets very, very warm after an hour or so

Amp is well built. Relatively

What sets this amp apart from the others in this price range is the sound quality, I’ve been listening to this for 2 weeks now, 2-3 hrs a day and it has really impressed me. Very rich sounding and very detailed but not fatiguing in any way. 

Excellent sound quality

The io Amp Sounds Great and Has Remote Control

This is a stunningly musical amplifier for the price; the design is sharply focused on sound quality, with a minimum of features and simple, straightforward styling. Music Direct made the purchasing experience so easy and rewarding, with the amp shipped quickly and double-boxed (much appreciated!).
