The Ultimate Rega Amplifier Combination

Introduction

The Rega Mercury and Rega Solis pre/power amplifier combination represents a new benchmark in musical performance, uniting precision engineering with Rega’s unmistakable analogue spirit. Designed as a perfectly matched duo, the Mercury preamplifier delivers exceptional control, clarity, and low-noise signal handling, while the Solis power amplifier provides effortless drive, dynamic authority, and remarkable musical agility. Together, they create a system that captures the essence of every recording—rich, engaging, and true to the artist’s intent—making them an exceptional choice for music lovers who demand both refinement and emotional impact from their listening experience.

We’ve been eagerly anticipating the arrival of Rega’s newest reference pre- and power-amplifier combination since our Rega Music Evening last January. At long last, both the Mercury and Solis will be available for demonstration from this November. We can’t wait to partner them with other Rega Reference series products including; Rega Naia and Rega Aura for the complete Rega Hi-Fi system.

Rega Mercury Pre-Amplifier/Dac

The main development objective for the Mercury was to create a no compromise audio pre-amplifier. The Mercury is hand crafted to reveal the true potential of your hi-fi system thanks to an ultra-low noise floor which delivers exceptional dynamic range. The Mercury pre-amplifier, like the Solis, is the culmination of almost four decades of Rega electronics engineering experience in solid-state amplifier development.

The Art Of Silence

Capturing the detail in a quiet performance is key to delivering an engaging sound. A well-engineered “clean” pre-amplifier preserves all those subtle details instead of masking them with unwanted noise. This fully featured reference pre-amplifier offers great flexibility and usability with the convenience of a high-performance DAC, discrete headphone amplifier, and a full colour IPS display.

Key Features

  • Fully discrete symmetrical circuitry in the core signal path
  • High performance DAC with S/PDIF and USB inputs
  • Galvanically isolated asynchronous USB input
  • Discrete headphone amplifier
  • Full colour IPS display
  • Custom backlit Orbit remote control
  • Standby mode
  • Lifetime warranty against manufacture defects

Rega Solis Power Amplifier

Experience the pinnacle of audio performance with the Solis stereo power amplifier. Designed and hand-built in England, this powerhouse is meticulously engineered for those who demand the very best in audio quality, design, and craftsmanship. Each component has been carefully selected for its superior audio properties, ensuring that every track you play, in every format, is delivered with breath-taking clarity and detail. Also compatible with the Rega Aethos stereo amplifier (pre-amplifier output).

Next Level Performance, Zero Compromise

Engineered to drive the most demanding of speakers, the Solis is the perfect partner for the Mercury Pre-amplifier.  Our engineering team have spent the last four years obsessively developing and fine tuning the circuit to create the most engaging and accurate performance. The advantage of using a separate chassis for the pre-amplifier and power amplifier allows the low voltage, sensitive circuitry to be isolated from the high current, power amplifier circuitry. This reduces interference between the pre-amplifier and power amplifier leading to a less noisy signal path and a cleaner signal.

Key Features

  • Fully symmetrical discrete circuitry in the signal path
  • Balanced and unbalanced inputs
  • 168W into 8Ω / 305W into 4Ω
  • Short circuit protection
  • Thermal cut-out and DC Protection
  • Standby mode (user selectable)
  • 12V trigger
  • Independent MUTE function
  • Compatible with Mercury pre-amplifier and Aethos stereo amplifier
  • Lifetime warranty against manufacture defects
