The Bristol Hi-Fi Show 2024 - First look at the Rega Solis & Mercury - A conversation with Roy Gandy

Our very own Brad sits down with legendary Rega Founder, Roy Gandy, at the Bristol Hi-Fi Show 2024 to discuss the all-new Solis Power Amplifier, Mercury Preamplifier and what it takes to make a Rega product.
Rega Research is a company that enjoys being different. Never one to sheepishly follow convention, it stands almost completely alone among major hi-fi companies in its commitment to UK manufacturing. Rega products are proud to be British, from the casework, to the electronics housed inside, design and through to manufacture. Rega’s aim is, and always has been, to make high quality products that faithfully and reliably reproduce music for sensible prices. From the very first turntable Rega produced back in 1973 to the current range of CD players, amplifiers, turntables, loudspeakers and accessories, it has always embraced new ideas and thinking, resulting in musical performance that goes beyond the norm.
Expect many more new and exciting products to be added to their product line up.

So interesting but I wish you would also have asked him about the upcoming nd7!

To be honest, so did I! 😅 Time just flew by and sadly the room was starting to get busy. I'm sure we'll be doing something on it when it comes out 👍🏻 Thanks for watching - Brad, Audio T

What a legend. I had pneumonia a few weeks ago in hospital and I am sure that I saw Roy visiting another patient in the opposite bed. Later I saw little donkey Kong gorillas racing around in little cars then I realised that I must have been hallucinating.

Sounds like quite the trip! 😅 Hope you're feeling better now? Thanks for watching - Audio T

A typo - the power amp is named Solis (not Solus) as shown in the video.

Well done @Bill.K, you passed the test! 😉 Thank you for watching. All the best - Audio T
