Rega’s Fono Mini A2D phono stage was never a looker, and this Mk2 version doesn’t change that much. Sure, its appearance is a little cleaner and the new glossy front panel fits in with the aesthetic of the brand’s current range better, but we doubt whether the new appearance will be the reason for any dramatic increase in sales.
But really, we don’t think that matters. The important part of this phono stage, the audio circuitry, remains unchanged, and while in most cases that would be a complaint, here we’re not unhappy that Rega has left well alone. You see, the Rega Fono Mini A2D has always been something of a star performer at this level and this Mk2 version continues to impress.
