The Rhea Signature version of the Aesthetix Rhea phono stage is distinguished by its use of exotic and expensive components, including custom-made inter-stage Teflon hybrid coupling capacitors and Dynamicap capacitors. These upgrades result in higher resolution, better bass dynamics, and reduced grain compared to the standard model. It offers remote control of gain, loading, input switching, mute, and a built-in MC cartridge demagnetizer. The unit is available in black or silver faceplates and includes a full-function remote control.
