About the Rega Nd3 MM Cartridge

The Rega Nd3 cartridge is meticulously hand-assembled by Rega’s team of highly skilled technicians. It features a high-quality elliptical stylus made from manmade polycrystalline diamond, bonded to a round titanium shank. The cartridge incorporates a newly developed generator geometry with precise symmetry, ensuring accurate channel balance. An optimised pole gap enhances linearity and reduces crosstalk, resulting in a significantly wider soundstage compared to previous models.

Rega has engineered the Nd3 with miniaturised parallel coils, each wound in-house using ultra-fine 38-micron wire with 1,275 turns. This design achieves a low-inductance, low-impedance generator that delivers a dramatically improved high-frequency response. Reflecting Rega’s ongoing commitment to sustainability, the Nd series is packaged in 100% recyclable materials.
