The main development objective for the Mercury was to create a no compromise audio preamplifier. Mercury is hand crafted to reveal the true potential of your hi-fi system thanks to an ultra-low noise floor delivering 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. 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.

Mercury is the smallest planet in our solar system. The Rega Mercury by contrast, is the largest (by component count) and most complex electronic product Rega has ever created. The origin of this circuit extends as far back as the first Rega Elicit amplifier circa 1990. The Mercury is housed in a custom-designed, Rega CNC machined, aluminium case offering unrivalled performance, build quality and styling.
