Rega Apheta 3

Apheta 3 features a super-powerful neodymium magnet and a meticulously hand-wound coil on an iron cross that is fifty percent smaller than the MK1 model. This weight reduction allows us greater freedom to follow the vinyl groove. The Apheta 3 is housed in a completely redesigned monobloc anodized aluminum body and protected by a smoked rigid cover designed by CAD to protect the delicate internal wires, making handling during assembly safe and risk-free. The Apheta 3 is the ideal partner for the latest Planar 8 and Planar 10 turntables.
