Rega Aura MC REF

Engelska hifi märket Rega började att bygga skivspelare redan 1975 och räknas som en av världens bästa skivspelar tillverkare i sin prisklass. Med massor av ”bäst-i-test” är verkligen Rega en tillverkare att räkna med. Rega fortsätter sin filosofi att tillverka Hifi-produkter av högsta kvalitet och som är pålitliga och ytterst prisvärda. I dag bygger man inte bara skivspelare, tonarmar och pickuper, utan man har breddat till att både bygga högtalare, förstärkare och DAC:ar mm. Rega grundades av Roy Gandys och han är fortfarande med bakom kulisserna.



Rega Aura MC REF
Aura Reference MC-steget är skapades genom decennier av elektronisk designutveckling. Rega har skapat den ultimata fullt justerbara symmetriska förförstärkare utformad för att helt enkelt extrahera den bästa prestanda från din MC-pickup och skivspelare.
Byggd i ett helt nydesignat chassi. Aura är framtagen bara för att spela MC-pickuper och är helt promisslös. Rega har undvikit att inkludera överflödiga funktioner eftersom de hindrar signalbanan och försämrar ljudkvaliteten.
Rega Aura Reference MC-steget innehåller anmärkningsvärda och innovativa designidéer.

REGA Aura MC Ref

The reference Aura MC stage is the culmination of decades of electronic design development. We have created the ultimate, fully adjustable, three-stage, all symmetrical pre-amplifier designed purely to extract the very best performance from your moving coil cartridge and vinyl playback system.

Key Features

• Three stage, all symmetrical pre-amplifier
• Compatible with all typical low output moving coil cartridges
• Fully adjustable
• Lifetime warranty against manufacture defects

Design Innovation

Built into a completely re-designed custom case, the Aura is dedicated to moving coil cartridges and stays clear of any compromises. We have avoided including any superfluous functions as they obstruct the signal path and degrade the sound quality. The Aura phono pre-amp incorporates remarkable and innovative design ideas. If you are a vinyl connoisseur, then the Aura MC is an absolute must!


Product Details

First Stage

The first stage is a symmetrical, complementary class A amplifier, using parallel connected Linear Systems ultra-low noise FET (Field Effect Transistor) transistors configured as a symmetrical compound pair input stage. 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 input circuit configuration also alleviates the use of any coupling components between the cartridge output and the input stage FET transistors, which would degrade the sound. The complementary ultra-low noise FET transistors are carefully graded and matched for optimum performance. This stage drives the passive high-frequency part of the RIAA equalisation stage.

Second stage

The second stage is a symmetrical, class A, differential amplifier with a common base driver stage; this is also used as the active amplifier in the low-frequency part of the RIAA equalisation stage.

Third stage

The third stage inverts the signal to provide the balanced output along with the output of the second stage; the third stage uses the same circuit topology as used in the second stage. The power supply is a symmetrical, discrete tracking power supply using fast diodes and a low noise voltage reference. Each stage has its own localised power supply and LED referenced current generators. To maximise headroom, the Aura has a power supply voltage, which is 60% higher than normally found in such a pre-amplifier. Very high quality, polypropylene capacitors have been used in the signal path. 1% tolerance polypropylene capacitors are used in the RIAA EQ stages and audio grade capacitors are used in the rest of the circuit. Gain, Mute and Mono switching is implemented using high-quality relays.
