Rega brio pairing

Posted by BMWDoctor on April 2, 2017 at 13:46:16:
Hi all, I've been getting more and more into my hi fi set up over the past months and my current set up is as follows ortofon 2m blue>project debut III>u turn pluto pre amp>Yamaha rxv 465 reciever>Dali zensor 3 speakers. I'm looking to streamline my set up and the rega brio 2017 seems to be the answer. My only real question is my current receiver is rated at 105w per channel and I'm pretty sure the rega is 50w. Will I notice a significant power drop in my playback? I know there are more factors to consider but I want to make sure I'm not taking a step backwards in the power department despite the upgrade. I also know my Yamaha I don't believe is rated to power the Dalis based on ohms and I don't want to kill my amp. I'm open to other sub $1000 directions but one thing to keep in mind is I am looking to ditch my current phono stage as I am not that impressed. Thanks!
