AMPLIFIER SETUP
The io will work well on most surfaces, such
as a shelf or table, provided there is sucient
air around the amplier to prevent overheating.
Ideally, position the amplifer as far as the
tonearm lead will allow. It is recommended NOT
to stack other hi- equipment directly on top of
the amplier.
WARNING: Never place it on fabric or carpet.
WARNING: CASE CAN GET HOT.
CONNECTIVITY
All inputs are made via RCA (phono) connectors:
• Input 1: Phono (turntable)
• Inputs 2 and 3: Line level inputs (CD/
streamer)
SHORT CIRCUIT
PROTECTION
In the event that the speaker leads are
accidentally shorted, a short circuit protection
is activated in the io amplier. This will protect
the output stage from excessive currents.
IMPORTANT: ALWAYS TURN OFF THE AMPLIFIER
WHEN CHANGING LEADS AND SPEAKER
CABLES.

AMPLIFIER CONTROLS
16. ON/OFF BUTTON
To turn the io on, press the black power button.
After a few seconds, you will hear a relay ‘click’
and the io will be operational.
17. USING HEADPHONES
The io is capable of driving all standard hi-
headphones via the 3.5mm stereo headphone
jack located on the front panel (17). The
headphone circuit has been optimised to
match most commonly used headphones.
When a headphone is inserted into the socket,
the speakers will automatically be turned
o. However, it is recommended to reduce
the volume of the io before connecting any
headphones to ensure they are not damaged
and prevent any hearing damage.
WARNING: THE io IS CAPABLE OF GENERATING
HIGH SOUND PRESSURE, POSING A HEARING
DAMAGE RISK. TO PREVENT POSSIBLE HEARING
DAMAGE, DO NOT LISTEN TO HEADPHONES AT
HIGH LEVELS FOR LONG PERIODS OF TIME.
18. INPUT SELECT
To change between inputs, press the small
black button located next to the row of input
digits to cycle through 1-3. The selected input
is highlighted in red. Input selection can also be
changed with the supplied remote.

19. MUTE
To mute the io amplifer press MUTE on the
supplied remote. The (mute symbol) will be
highlighted on the io front panel.
20. VOLUME CONTROL
The volume control has a minimum and
maximum value which is indicated by the notch
on the volume knob. The volume does not reset
after each use. Before plugging in headphones,
make sure the volume is reduced. This can also
be adjusted via the supplied remote.

LOUDSPEAKER ASSEMBLY
Included with your KYTEs are two rear feet (21)
and four Pozi No. 2 screws. These are required
to install the rear foot on each speaker (you will
need a PZ2/Pozi No. 2 screwdriver). Place the
KYTEs overhanging the edge of a at surface
(Fig. A). Loosely t the rear feet then move
up on to a level surface before fully tightening
to ensure the speaker will sit level in its nal
position (Fig. B).
IMPORTANT: NEVER place the speaker face
down when tting the feet to avoid damage to
the drive units.
CONNECTION
Ensure the colour terminals Red (+) and Black
(-) are connected to the correct terminals at
both loudspeaker and amplier binding posts.
POSITIONING
The KYTEs can be used on stands, a sturdy
shelf or at surface. Imaging and bass response
can be tuned by adjusting the distance of
the speaker from the rear wall. As with all
loudspeakers, this will be dependent on the
size of room, ooring and furnishings therefore
some simple experiments trying dierent
distances will help optimise the performance
to your surroundings. In general, more bass is
produced if the cabinet is positioned closer to a
structural wall.
KYTE STAND ADAPTOR
(OPTIONAL)
An optional metal base is available for
purchase, which will oer greater compatibility
with a wide range of third party loudspeaker
stands (see www.rega.co.uk for details).
REPLACING THE DRIVE
UNITS
In the unlikely event a drive unit needs to be
replaced, it is necessary to remove the front
fascia label to access the drive unit xing
screws. A new adhesive front panel label will
be supplied as standard with any replacement
units. To remove the front panel label, we
recommend accessing via the unit that requires
replacement to prevent damage to the phenolic
cabinet. We recommend that any servicing is
carried out via a registered Rega dealer, you
can nd your nearest Rega dealer on www.rega.
