The Mira is a pretty nice integrated and has a good phono stage for the price. Good build quality, but for the plastic volume knob. It's convenient to use. True the preamp gain is a bit low. It can be raised, just ask your dealer how to do it. Even then it does'nt seem to sound like 60 watts. I dont know if that was because of being conscious of where the dial was (usually well beyond half). Personally I dont hear large differences between class AB bipolar transistor integrated amps, just slight variations in voicing. All are capable of good, but not great performance. The Rega is no exception. It has very good performance all around but nothing that marks it out as exceptional. Definitely good enough for a second system, especially if that system needs phono.
Need feedback on Rega Mira 3 integrated amp
I listened to the Mira 3 with Rega R5 speakers the other day at a dealer and thought the combination sounded good for the money. I would not go with the R5 but will consider the Mira 3 mated to a smaller monitor for a second system in my house. It has an output of 69 watt (8 ohm) a side and I am concerned this may be a little lite. Any experience with the Mira 3 is appreciated.
