The second iteration of Rega’s Fono Mini A2D looks a little cleaner than its forebear, its new glossy front panel fitting in with the aesthetic of the brand’s current range better. But the important part of this new phono stage, the audio circuitry, remains unchanged, and we are not unhappy that Rega has left well alone. You see, the Rega Fono Mini A2D has always been something of a star performer at this level, and this Mk2 version continues to impress.

Physically, this remains a small, unassuming box. It takes up barely any more shelf space than a typical coaster. The technical side is as expected with a 47kOhm/100pF input loading, which are the standard values needed for moving-magnet cartridges.

Apart from the stereo RCAs that cover the input and output connections, you will find a grounding screw; while on the front panel you will find the reason for the A2D in this product’s name: the USB (Type B) output with accompanying level control.
