Is A$1,400 a fair price for a like-new Rega ELEX R, or is it too ambitious compared to the typical used market? Based on your database of seven recent AUD listings, the median sits at A$986, with the 75th percentile at A$1,064, meaning this A$1,400 asking price clearly exceeds the upper end of the normal used range and feels ambitious. While external listings show some variation—one at A$1,350 and another at A$1,200 —the overwhelming cluster hovers well below A$1,100, making this A$1,400 listing notably pricier than the norm unless the condition is truly pristine and accessories are complete.
The ELEX R remains a highly regarded solid-state integrated, praised for blending the warmth of the Brio-R with the power of the Elicit-R, delivering 72.5W into 8Ω with a balanced, musical sound. It’s a compact, 10.8kg unit that excels in midrange clarity and dynamic control, making it a favorite for vinyl and small-to-mid rooms. If this listing is genuinely like-new from an original owner with full accessories and no wear, the premium might be justified—but for a standard used unit, it’s a hard sell against the A$986 median.

Rega Research, founded in 1973 in Essex, England, by Roy Gandy and Tony Relph, emerged from Gandy's lifelong passion for vinyl playback. A Ford engineer and music enthusiast, Gandy built his first turntable, the Planet, in his spare time, blending the founders' surnames to create the Rega name. From humble beginnings in a derelict mill, the company quickly gained traction with early models like the Planar 2 and Planar 3, establishing its heritage as a British hi-fi pioneer dedicated to precision engineering and hand-assembly.
Rega specializes in turntables and tonearms, its cornerstone products, but has expanded into a full ecosystem including cartridges, integrated amplifiers like the Elicit and Brio, phono stages such as the Fono, and speakers like the Ela series. While early efforts included loudspeakers and electronics from the 1980s onward, the brand prioritizes vinyl-centric components over headphones, DACs, or cables, all designed in-house for musical fidelity using specialist materials and tight tolerances.
Rega holds a revered position in the high-end hi-fi market as a niche boutique icon, prized by audiophiles for affordable, lifetime-quality performance that emphasizes music over gimmicks. Globally exported to over 50 countries from its Essex facility employing more than 150, it remains a symbol of British ingenuity, with turntables like the Planar series securing enduring loyalty among vinyl revivalists.
