betty boop Posted November 3, 2013 Share Posted November 3, 2013 (edited) Item: REGA IOS MC Phono stage, mint condition with box, manual etcLocation: SE MelbournePrice: $2,000Item Condition: Mint, not being used Reason for selling: giving up the dream of a 2nd turntable rig...Payment Method: bank deposit or Pickup - Cash or can ship around australia at cost to buyerExtra Info: Have in original box and packaging with manual etcPictures: see below, as can hopefully see this is in mint condition as would buy from the shopAs some might know this is a very highly regarded MC phono stage. Its beautifully made and put together to the point that Rega decided to re box this item in another casing to elevate it to IOS Reference status ! as can see in the link below it now reboxed retails at $7,999! http://store.melbournehifi.com.au/index.php/review/product/list/id/939/category/34/ Heres your chance to pick up one of these in mint condition for a fraction of what the model above costs in the shops ! Although I've had this boxed up and under the bed for the last year thinking of how could set up a 2nd turntable in my system, have finally resigned myself to the fact it aint happening and probably better sold and put to good use by someone else. you'll find a goo review of the Rega IOS here,http://www.rega-audio.de/verstaerker/ios/downloads/Rega_Ios_Test_ToneAudio_2008-07.pdf "Over the last few months, I’ve listened to perhaps a half dozen $1000 phono preamps, each one a winner in its own way. Just prior to that, however, I used a couple of phono stages in the $5000 to $7000 range. The Rega Ios easily belongs in the latter group. The build quality is astonishing (it’s certainly the heaviest phono preamp I’ve used), the flexibility world-class. The sound quality was perhaps the most addictive I’ve experienced in my system, and now I want that Ios as well. " melbourne buyers most welcome to come check these out and pay cash on pick up or can happily ship anywhere in Australia at buyers cost photos of the actual unit edit price adjusted Edited November 25, 2013 by :) al Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
