    Fono MM MK5 Phono Stage

    £220

    Our go-to budget phono stage, Fono MM is now in it’s fifth iteration, MK5, an cosmetic-only update in November 2021 to match the current Rega facia.

    Fono moving magnet phono stage is virtually flawless, giving clear, detailed and spacious performance, delivering fine handling of timing and dynamics, all in a sleek, compact casing. It is one of the best value-for-money products we stock and perfectly complements Rega’s Planar 1, 2 and 3 turntables.

    Fono MM phono stage has been designed to be effective, easy to use, and above all, to reproduce music. The Fono MM uses a fully discrete, cascaded, complementary amplifier input stage, a configuration designed to optimise the performance of your moving magnet cartridge. Now housed in a brand new redesigned case to match the new Fono MC and Rega’s latest range of electronic components offering a modern and sleek look guaranteed to integrate in to any hi-fi system.

    The RIAA equalization has been split into two stages to minimise interaction. Polyester capacitors have been used in the signal path and polypropylene capacitors are used in the RIAA equalization circuits.

    The aesthetic design of the Fono MM was as important as the quality of its electrical capabilities, so it benefits from the same aluminium case as the Rega TTPSU and Fono MC amplifier, giving it a design which offers a familiar feel and moreover brings it in line with its illustrious bigger brothers.
