Our Rega Planar 2 turntable system delivers incredible sound from such a compact setup. The Rega io amplifier has won multiple awards and is widely regarded as one of the best entry-level amplifiers you can buy. We have paired it with Rega’s Planar 2 turntable and the excellent DALI Spektor speakers to ensure you get superb sound from your vinyl collection. This system offers outstanding performance for its price and will provide years of enjoyment.
We would always encourage you to visit our showroom to listen to these systems for yourself and experience the Doug Brady atmosphere that our customers, who we are proud to call friends, have enjoyed for the past 60 years. However, we understand that many people now prefer to purchase online or by phone. By creating these starter packages, our aim is to bring the Doug Brady experience into your living room.
We also love getting you involved. In this section you can have fun building your own system, with the knowledge that all of the options below work perfectly together to ensure the best possible sound for your budget. We have kept things simple while still offering enough choice for you to tailor the system to your needs.

The Rega io Amplifier has won multiple awards and is the best entry-level amplifier you can buy, so we have put this together with Rega's Planar 2 Turntable and the amazing Dali speakers. This system has an incredible sound for its price and will offer years of enjoyment.
Best Digital & Analogue Option
The Mission 778X integrated amp is a great option if you want access to your digital music collection via the Bluetooth connection.
The Mission has a sweet, natural presentation and is also a great match for the Rega Planar 2 turntable, offering more power for analogue sources as well as a variety of digital inputs for just about any type of two-channel audio system. With Bluetooth aptX connectivity, you can stream all your favourite tunes. This combination has a natural sound that is pure and sweet.
Premium Digital & Analogue Option
The Rotel A11MkII Integrated Amplifier offers an excellent combination of power and connectivity with both analogue and digital sources, including three line-level RCA inputs and coaxial and optical digital inputs.
The built-in Moving Magnet phono stage is very good, giving you excellent sound from your vinyl, and aptX™ HD Bluetooth connectivity allows you to stream in HD quality. This combination has a warm sound that is almost old-school tube-like, yet with more power and all the detail.
