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 Planar 1 Black
The way into the Rega worldThe Planar 1 is the turntable that opens Rega's Planar range: hand built in England, belt driven, playing 33⅓ and 45 rpm records, with a pre-set RB110 tonearm and a factory-fitted Carbon cartridge. It comes out of the box almost ready to play; Rega puts set-up at under 30 seconds. This version comes in a Matt Black finish.Award-winning design, refined throughoutThe model has won What Hi-Fi?'s «Best Turntable £200-£500» award five years in a row. For the latest generation Rega redesigned the motor, tonearm, belt and plinth, aiming for performance beyond its price. The result is a turntable that asks for no adjustment yet makes no compromise on the essentials: stable speed, low noise and a tonearm that reads the groove accurately.What you need to get startedIn the box you will find the Carbon cartridge already in place, a felt mat, dust cover, counterweight and the external power supply. The Planar 1 connects to an amplifier with an MM phono input, such as the Rega io, or to an external phono stage. If your system has no phono input, the Planar 1 Plus includes its own built-in phono stage.

Rega Planar 2 Black
A 1975 legend, rewrittenThe Planar 2 continues the story of the turntable of the same name that Rega introduced in 1975. Today's version was developed over around two years alongside the Planar 3 and borrows many of its engineering improvements: the RB220 tonearm, a new low-noise 24 V motor, a high-gloss acrylic laminated plinth and a redesigned main bearing. Rega's goal was to extract as much detail as possible from the groove. This version comes in a Black Gloss finish with a clear dust cover.Ready to play, with room to growThe Planar 2 is supplied with the Rega Carbon cartridge factory fitted, making it practically plug & play. At the same time, the RB220 tonearm with its adjustable bias leaves the door open to a cartridge upgrade later on. The model has collected awards and glowing reviews from What Hi-Fi?, Hi-Fi Choice, Hi-Fi News and Sound Matters.What you need to get startedA dust cover, felt mat and multilingual quick start guide are included. The Planar 2 needs an amplifier with an MM phono input or an external phono stage, such as the Rega Fono Mini A2D.

Rega Carbon
The cartridge of the Planar 1 and Planar 2The Rega Carbon is a high-quality moving magnet (MM) cartridge designed for easy fitting and setup, with accurate music reproduction as its main goal. It is the cartridge factory-fitted to the Planar 1 and Planar 2 turntables and Rega's most affordable MM cartridge. The company presents it as one of the best-performing cartridges in its class relative to its price.Standard mounting for any tonearmThe Carbon uses the established half-inch, two-screw mounting, so it can be fitted not only to Rega tonearms but also to arms from other manufacturers. Its wide tracking force range, from 2 to 3 g, makes it forgiving to set up and ideal for anyone taking their first steps into vinyl. An output of 2.5 mV at 1 kHz suits any MM phono stage.WarrantyIt is covered by Rega's Lifetime Limited Warranty against confirmed manufacturing defects. The stylus, as a consumable part, is easily replaced by the user.

Rega ND3
The entry to the Nd seriesThe Nd3 is the first cartridge in Rega's new moving magnet (MM) range and succeeds the multi-award-winning Elys 2. It is a hand-built stereo cartridge, the result of around ten years of research and development, using powerful N55 neodymium magnets in a design Rega describes as ground-breaking for an MM cartridge. Every Nd3 is assembled by hand in England.Factory option and upgradeThe Nd3 is available as a factory-fitted option on the Planar 2 and Planar 3 turntables, at a lower cost than buying it separately. It is also a meaningful upgrade for any Rega tonearm fitted with a Carbon or an older Elys. With an output of 5 to 6 mV it suits any MM phono stage, such as the Fono Mini A2D MK2 and Fono MM MK5 or the phono stages of the io and Elex amplifiers.Rebuild scheme and warrantyThrough Rega's rebuild scheme, a worn or damaged Nd3 can be returned to an authorised dealer to be rebuilt with a new cantilever, stylus and pivot pad at a reduced price. The cartridge is covered by Rega's Lifetime Limited Warranty against manufacturing defects, and its packaging is 100% recyclable.

Compact MM phono stage with USB output for digitising vinyl
The most accessible way into the Rega sound
The Fono Mini A2D MK2 is Rega's smallest phono stage and one of the company's most popular products. Made in England, it accepts any moving magnet (MM) cartridge, from the Rega Carbon fitted to the Planar 1 and Planar 2 up to the cartridges of the Nd series. Its circuit is derived from the larger Fono MM, which is why it delivers a sound that clearly outperforms its size and price point.
For systems without a phono input
Many modern amplifiers, active speakers and streaming systems no longer include a phono input. The Fono Mini A2D MK2 solves this in the simplest possible way: connect the turntable to its input and its output to any line-level input. At just 10.2 cm wide it sits next to the turntable or behind the amplifier, while 24 V AC power comes from an external supply.
Warranty and support
Like all Rega electronics, it is covered by the manufacturer's Lifetime Limited Warranty against confirmed manufacturing defects, under the terms that apply in the country of purchase.
From vinyl to digital
The A2D in the name stands for Analogue to Digital. Beyond its role as a phono stage, the Fono Mini A2D MK2 also acts as a bridge between your record collection and your computer, so you can keep digital copies of your favourite albums. There is no need for a separate sound card or external converter: the same stage that amplifies and RIAA-equalises the cartridge signal also converts it into digital form.
Recording over USB
The USB output sends the turntable signal straight to the computer at 16-bit resolution and a 44.1 kHz sample rate, with support for up to 48 kHz. That is CD standard, ideal for archiving rare pressings, creating files to play on your phone or in the car, and preserving records that are no longer available in digital form. Recording is done with the audio recording software of your choice.
The right level for a clean recording
Every cartridge and every record plays at a different level. That is why Rega added a front-panel Level control that adjusts the gain of the digital output. It helps you avoid both distortion from overload and recordings that are far too quiet. Full digital scale is reached with an input signal of 7.5 mV. At the same time the analogue output stays active, so you can listen to the record through your hi-fi system while it is being recorded. It is a simple, reliable process that turns an ordinary listening session into building your own personal digital archive.
Fono MM DNA
Despite its small size, the Fono Mini A2D MK2 is not a mere connection accessory. Its circuit comes from the Fono MM, Rega's award-winning MM phono stage, and follows the same philosophy: a few carefully chosen stages and a clean signal path. The result is a phono stage that respects the music and delivers the Rega character right from the first stage of a system.
Timing and dynamics
Its sound is defined by accurate timing and energy, qualities that reviewers have consistently recognised over the years. What Hi-Fi? awarded it five stars, noting that timing has always been one of its defining talents. Bass is controlled, voices sound natural and noise stays low, with a signal-to-noise ratio of 78 dBA. Even in quiet passages the background stays clean, revealing the small details of the performance and the atmosphere of the recording.
Correctly matched to the cartridge
A cartridge performs only as well as the load it sees allows, so matching matters. The input loads the cartridge with 47 kΩ and 100 pF, the established value for moving magnet designs. Input sensitivity of 5 mV for 500 mV output suits typical cartridges such as the Rega Carbon, while the maximum input level of 70 mV at 1 kHz leaves generous headroom for dynamic peaks. A low 100 Ω output impedance allows it to drive almost any amplifier or active speaker without losses or tonal changes, so it can be placed wherever it is most convenient in your system.
The natural partner for a Planar
Rega recommends the Fono Mini A2D MK2 as a natural match for the Planar 1 Plus, Planar 2 and Planar 3 turntables, as well as for the Carbon cartridge. It is the simplest way to build a complete, high-quality vinyl system without complicated adjustments. Pairing turntable, cartridge and phono stage from the same manufacturer ensures every element has been designed and tested to work together in harmony.
An upgrade that makes sense
If your amplifier already has a built-in phono stage, the Fono Mini A2D MK2 is often a clear improvement, since many built-in stages are an afterthought in the amplifier's design. If your amplifier or active speakers have no phono input at all, the Fono Mini A2D MK2 makes it possible to connect a turntable without compromising the sound. It is also a smart choice for a second system, a home office or a bedroom, where space is limited but sound quality remains a clear priority for the listener.
Set up in minutes
Simplicity is part of the Rega philosophy. There are no menus and no loading adjustments: connect the turntable lead and earth wire, the output to your amplifier and the power supply, and you are ready to drop the needle on your first record. Measuring 10.2 x 3.0 x 12.5 cm, it can sit discreetly on a shelf, while manufacture in England and the manufacturer's lifetime warranty against manufacturing defects give peace of mind for many years of trouble-free use.
