Rega Aria MK3 MM / MC

Rega Fono MM MK5

Rega's dedicated MM phono stageThe Fono MM MK5 is Rega's dedicated phono stage for moving magnet (MM) cartridges and is made in England. It is designed to get the very best from any MM cartridge, from the Carbon to the cartridges of the Nd series, and is the natural partner for the Planar 1 Plus, Planar 2, Planar 3, Planar 6 and Planar 8 turntables. It follows a line of phono stages that have won successive What Hi-Fi? Awards since 2017, most recently Best Phono Stage under £400 for 2026.Simple connection, clean operationThere are no confusing switches or loading settings: the Fono MM MK5 loads the cartridge with the established value of 47 kΩ and 100 pF and is ready to play as soon as it is connected. It is powered by an external 24 V AC supply, keeping the transformer well away from the sensitive gain circuitry.WarrantyIt is covered by Rega's Lifetime Limited Warranty against confirmed manufacturing defects, under the terms of the country of purchase.

Rega Aura Reference MC Black

Rega's reference phono stageThe Aura MC is Rega's flagship phono stage. It is a fully adjustable, fully balanced three-stage design dedicated exclusively to moving coil (MC) cartridges and made in England. It was developed without compromise, with the aim of recovering all the information held in a record groove, and is the natural partner for the Planar 10, the Naia and the flagship Aphelion 2 cartridge.Nothing superfluousRega deliberately added no functions that do not contribute to the sound, so the signal path is never burdened. The large, purpose-designed enclosure, weighing 13 kg, houses a regulated power supply with a large toroidal transformer and offers both unbalanced (RCA) and balanced (XLR) outputs.Reviews and warrantyThe Aura MC has earned five stars from What Hi-Fi? and The Ear, an Editor's Choice from Hi-Fi Choice and a Best Buy from AVForums. Jason Kennedy described it as a clearly top-notch phono preamplifier. It is covered by Rega's Lifetime Limited Warranty against confirmed manufacturing defects.

Rega Ania

The MC cartridge that makes the upgrade affordableThe Rega Ania is the moving coil (MC) cartridge with which the British company brought the know-how of the Apheta and Aphelion to a far more accessible level. It uses the same hand-wound micro coil as the rest of Rega's MC range, an elliptical diamond stylus and an aluminium cantilever. For anyone already running a Rega turntable with a moving magnet cartridge, it is the most logical next step towards more detail, speed and clarity.Sound characterThe Ania delivers lively dynamics and natural tonality, with good resolution of the small details hidden in the groove. Bass is tight and controlled, the midrange has body and the treble stays clean without harshness. It rewards both focused listening and everyday use, without needing an exotic system to show what it can do.Ideal pairingsRega recommends the Ania for the Planar 3 and Planar 6, with which it shares the philosophy of light, rigid construction. It fits equally well on any Rega tonearm with three-point fixing (RB330, RB880, RB3000). As with every true MC cartridge its output is low, so it needs a phono stage with an MC input and enough gain, such as the Rega Fono MC.

Rega Ania Pro

The Ania with a stylus from the AphetaThe Rega Ania Pro is a moving coil cartridge that keeps the rigid body and hand-wound generator of the Ania but upgrades the most critical detail: the stylus. Here Rega uses a nude diamond with a Vital profile, the stylus philosophy inherited from the Apheta range, to recover as much information from the groove as possible. It is easy to recognise by its red protective cover.Sound characterRega sums up its sound in three phrases: tight bass, warm mids and accurate highs. The result is balanced and detailed, with wide dynamic range, a spacious soundstage and natural tonal balance. Reviewers at Hi-Fi Choice and The Ear described it as a clear step up from the Ania, especially on Rega turntables.Which turntables it is made forRega recommends the Ania Pro as the ideal cartridge for the Planar 6 and Planar 8, and offers versions of both turntables with the cartridge factory-fitted. It also suits the Planar 3 and any Rega tonearm with three-point fixing, such as the RB330 and RB880. It needs a phono stage with an MC input.

Rega Apheta 3

Fifteen years of developmentRega has refined its moving coil cartridges for more than fifteen years, using undamped micro-mass generators and jointless bodies. The Apheta 2 was a great success and the Apheta 3 builds on it, borrowing from the flagship Aphelion 2 the nude Fine Line diamond stylus mounted at 90 degrees. The aim is to recover even more detail from the groove.Sound characterThe Apheta 3 delivers clear, transparent highs, exceptional resolution, rich low frequencies and very good channel separation. The sound is musical and natural, with correct rendering of instrumental timbre and fast transient response. It is a cartridge that reveals what is really on a good pressing, without adding brightness or weight.The ideal partnerRega calls it the ideal partner for the Planar 8 and Planar 10, and through retailers it is also available factory-fitted as a package at a more favourable price. It also suits the Planar 6 and the RB330 and RB880 tonearms, while Rega's Aura MC phono stage is its natural companion. It needs an MC phono stage.

Rega Planar 6

RP8 and RP10 technology in a more accessible formThe Planar 6 succeeds the award-winning RP6 and is Rega's first turntable with a Tancast 8 foam core plinth. It takes the ideas behind the RP8 and RP10, namely an ultra-light yet rigid base, a matched motor and a separate power supply, and brings them to a price class where, according to Rega, its performance exceeds its cost. This version comes in matt Polaris grey with high-gloss black edge trim, together with the RB330 tonearm and the Neo PSU MK2 power supply, without a cartridge. It is hand-built in England.Platter, sub-platter and feetThe platter consists of two layers of float glass, one smoked and one clear, bonded under pressure, as on the RP8. It sits on a sub-platter machined from a single piece of aluminium and carefully balanced. A wool felt mat is included; it is anti-static and does not stick to records. The feet are aluminium with an elastomer insert to isolate the turntable from the surface it stands on.Cartridge choice and systemWithout a factory-fitted cartridge, the Planar 6 leaves the choice to you: it pairs ideally with the Rega Nd5, Nd7 and Nd9 (MM) or the Ania, Ania Pro and Apheta 3 (MC). Depending on the cartridge you will need an MM or MC phono stage, such as the Rega Fono MM MK5 and Fono MC MK4, or an amplifier with the matching input.

Rega Planar 8 Black + Neo PSU

An affordable NaiadThe Planar 8 is not simply an evolution of the RP8. Rega designed it from scratch to capture the essence of the Naiad, its experimental reference turntable, in a far more accessible class. The result is a skeletal, ultra-light turntable with the RB880 tonearm and the Neo PSU MK2 power supply, supplied without a cartridge, in matt Polaris grey. The outer frame of the RP8 has been replaced by a single-piece removable dust cover, reducing mass even further. It is hand-built in England.Triple-layer platter and main bearingThe platter consists of three layers of glass of different thicknesses, bonded under pressure. Most of its mass sits at the rim for a strong flywheel effect, while the lighter centre reduces load on the bearing. The platter rests on a sub-platter machined from a single piece of aluminium, with a hardened steel spindle running in a brass housing.Choosing a cartridgeWithout a factory-fitted cartridge, the Planar 8 can be paired with the Rega Nd7 and Nd9 (MM) or the Ania Pro, Apheta 3 and Aphelion 2 (MC). For moving coil cartridges Rega recommends phono stages such as the Aura MC. Among other awards, the Planar 8 has been named What Hi-Fi? Best Turntable Over £2000 (2019) and Hi-Fi Choice Group Test Winner (2023).
