Rega Aria MK3 MM/MC Phono Stage at Len Wallis Audio in Lane Cove Why Choose the Rega Aria MK3 MM/MC Phono Stage?

The Rega Aria MK3 MM/MC Phono Stage delivers a warm, organic vinyl experience, showcasing Rega’s 50-year legacy in British hi-fi craftsmanship. Designed with two separate high-performance stages—one for moving magnet (MM) and one for moving coil (MC)—it maximises the potential of your cartridge without compromise. The MC stage uses parallel-connected low-noise FETs, ensuring no bias current disrupts the cartridge’s magnetic geometry, while the MM stage employs low-noise bipolar transistors for clarity. With adjustable MC loading via rear DIP switches (70 to 400 ohms resistance, 1000 to 4200 pF capacitance), this phono stage offers flexibility for cartridges like the Rega Ania Pro or Exact, making it a versatile addition to any vinyl setup.

The Rega Aria MK3 MM/MC Phono Stage excels at delivering a musical, engaging sound that captures the essence of vinyl. StereoNET highlights its “organic sound” and ability to “carry the music’s natural groove,” noting its slightly warm tonal balance that brings out the emotion in tracks like REM’s Welcome to the Occupation.

The midband offers good detail, with a smooth presentation that avoids harshness, as seen in the handling of Scritti Politti’s The Word Girl, where bass has a subtle bloom and synth stabs remain balanced. Ideal for pairing with turntables like the Rega Planar 6 or Planar 8, this phono stage brings a tangible, tactile quality to vocals and instruments, making it a joy for audiophiles who value musicality over clinical precision.

The Rega Aria MK3 MM/MC Phono Stage, available at Len Wallis Audio, combines performance with sleek design. Housed in a custom aluminium case that matches Rega’s modern range, like the Planar 10 PSU and Aethos amplifier, it shields against RFI signals for a pure signal path. The all-analogue design avoids digital circuitry, focusing on sound quality with discrete transistors and high-quality components like Nichicon FG capacitors.
