The Rega Elicit MK5 is a two-channel Class A/B integrated stereo amplifier with a built-in Wolfson DAC, moving-magnet phono stage, headphone output, five analogue input paths, and coaxial and optical digital inputs. It is designed around a high-current linear power supply and Rega’s discrete amplifier circuitry, delivering 105 W per channel into 8 ohms and up to 162 W per channel into 4 ohms. The amplifier also provides a direct power-amplifier input, preamplifier output, recording output, remote control, and a single pair of speaker terminals.
