One fully adjustable, dedicated moving coil and one moving magnet. Each stage is designed and engineered to maximise the potential of your vinyl system whilst remaining easy to use and set up.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Aria is an “all analogue amplifier” with no digital control circuitry. The fully aluminium case screens the internal circuit from any stray RFI signals. Our designers have avoided including any superfluous gadgets as they obstruct the signal path and degrade the sound quality. The Aria incorporates many innovative design ideas including a self-adjusting servo control to keep the MC input circuit at its optimum, compensating for any variations in ambient or operating temperature.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBoth stages have their own separate input sockets and input pre-amplifier circuitry. This enabled us to design bespoke input circuitry for each cartridge type without compromise. Signal switching is performed at high level and low impedance (via relays) ensuring there is no degradation of the signal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"heading-5 uppercase\"\u003eKEY FEATURES\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"bullet-list green-bullets\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh performance switchable MC \u0026amp; MM stage\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFully adjustable MC stage\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMC input uses parallel connected low noise FET's\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMM input uses low noise bipolar transistors\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCustom designed case\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAll analogue amplifier\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBespoke input circuitry for MM \u0026amp; MC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLifetime warranty against manufacture defects\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"xxxlarge-6 cell module-2-content\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eMM Stage design \u0026amp; features\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe MM input uses low noise, bipolar input transistors also configured as a compound pair. There are two separate power supplies for each channel and further sub-power supplies for each of the low noise input circuits. Nichicon FG electrolytic capacitors have been used in critical positions throughout the power supplies. Polypropylene capacitors have been used in the signal path and equalization networks. Discrete circuitry is used throughout the signal path ensuring full control of the circuit design.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"xxxlarge-6 cell module-2-content\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eMC Stage Design \u0026amp; Features\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe MC input uses parallel connected, low noise FETs (Field Effect Transistors) configured as a compound pair. The use of FET transistors ensures there is no bias current flowing in the cartridge coil so as not to upset the delicate magnetic geometry of the cartridge. The MC input has the provision for selecting resistive input loading of 70 Ω to 400 Ω and capacitive loading of 1000 pF to 4200 pF. The input sensitivity can be changed by 6 dB via the back panel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"heading-5 uppercase\"\u003eTECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdl class=\"dl-ruled dl-ruled--specs\"\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eMaximum Output Level\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e11 V RMS\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eRated Output Level\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e200 mV\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eOutput Resistance\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e100 Ω\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eMinimum Output Resistance for a -3 dB @ 15Hz\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e1 k\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003ePower Consumption\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e10 W\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eAmbient Operating Temperature\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e5 to 35 °C\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eDimensions (W × H × D)\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e218 x 78 x 315 mm\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eWeight\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e3.1Kg\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003c\/dl\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"dl-footnote\"\u003eFor full technical specifications, download \u003cb\u003eAria MK3 User Manual\u003c\/b\u003e below.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"heading-5 uppercase\"\u003eLOAD SETTINGS FOR ADJUSTABLE MC STAGES\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdl class=\"dl-ruled dl-ruled--specs\"\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eRega MC Load Resistance L \u0026amp; R\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003e100 Ω\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eRega MC Loading Capacitance L \u0026amp; R\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003e1000 pF\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eRega MC Gain L \u0026amp; R\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003e69.3 dB 9 (High setting for Rega MC models)\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003c\/dl\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Rega","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":63812274946425,"sku":"AMP-ARIA-MK3-BLK-USA","price":508.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1004\/7219\/3401\/files\/aria-mk3-master_1024x1024_8273d324-8f09-4a7e-884b-4a8efd225c19.webp?v=1782099244","url":"https:\/\/noirvinyl.com\/products\/rega-aria-mk3-mm-mc-phono-stage","provider":"NOIR VINYL","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
