Rega ND3

Rega Nd3

The Rega Nd3 phono cartridge is a moving magnet (MM) model with an elliptical diamond. It is the entry-level model in the Rega Nd series. The latter is characterized by the use of a N55 neodymium magnet, the most powerful on the market, usually reserved for moving coil (MC) cartridges. The Rega Nd3 hifi cartridge promises rich and detailed reproduction as well as a wide soundstage.

The Rega Nd3 moving magnet cartridge provides detailed reproduction and a wide soundstage to rediscover your favourite vinyl records.

3-point fixing

The Rega Nd3 phono cartridge replaces the Rega Elys 2 model. Like the latter, it is designed to preserve the integrity of the musical signal by eliminating losses due to vibrations and resonances. Its internal design and its three-point fixing system, specific to the British manufacturer, ensure a perfect connection with the tonearm. The cartridge-tonearm couple is now one, the mechanical vibrations outside the signal are evacuated from the cartridge to the tonearm and then from the tonearm to the turntable, producing a resonance path which moves away from the record and preserves all the reading acuity of the cartridge.

The Rega Nd3 phono cartridge uses the 3-point fixing standard used by the British manufacturer in order to benefit from perfect stability and an optimal connection with the tonearm.

Elliptical diamond, aluminum cantilever

The Rega Nd3 phono cartridge features an elliptical diamond. This is mounted on an aluminium cantilever. A lightweight and rigid material that ensures perfect tracking of the grooves in order to extract every detail. The pivoting pads of the Rega Nd3 cartridge improve sonic performance by eliminating the mechanical joint between the stylus and the main body. The result is better tracking of the grooves and more playback stability.

Wide and detailed soundstage

The Rega Nd3 cartridge shines with its sound reproduction. The soundstage is wide and precise. Indeed, this phono cartridge benefits from an optimized space between the poles. Thus, the Rega Nd3 guarantees excellent linearity and superior crosstalk characteristics, which allows to obtain a very wide soundstage. Another new feature is the miniaturized parallel winding using a 38 micron wire with only 1275 turns which optimizes the inductance and impedance in order to maximize the response in the high frequencies.
