Rega Aethos Stereo Amplifier

The Aethos stereo amplifier is housed in a brand new, custom-designed case. Employing four 160 W 16 Amp output transistors per channel, this delivers 156 W per channel into 6 Ohm. The Aethos is a dual-mono design 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. The Aethos is a no-compromise product with one goal, to deliver your music as faithfully as possible.
