The ELEX MK4 is an integrated amplifier with phono from Rega, built with comprehensive five-input connectivity and a wide bandwidth. The ELEX MK4 brings Rega's considered engineering to a complete integrated solution.
Key specs that matter
Four single-ended inputs plus a dedicated phono input are provided. Input sensitivity is 164mV for line-level or 1.6mV for phono, with input impedance at 10k ohms single-ended, plus 47k ohms for MM/MC phono. Output power is 72W into 8 ohms. Frequency response spans a wide 10Hz to 65,000Hz within plus-or-minus 3dB. Total harmonic distortion plus noise is 0.005%. At 432 x 82 x 340mm and 11kg, the ELEX MK4 maintains a manageable integrated amplifier footprint.
Sound and use context
Expect the musically engaging, considered character Rega's broader electronics catalogue is known for, with the wide 10Hz-65kHz bandwidth and low 0.005% distortion figure reflecting careful circuit engineering, alongside the convenience of built-in phono amplification.
Pairing
The built-in phono input covers a turntable directly without needing a separate outboard phono stage, and Rega's own AYA loudspeaker shares the brand's coherent engineering philosophy.
Alternatives
Rega's broader amplifier catalogue offers alternatives for buyers wanting a different output level or configuration.
