Rega Ania Pro Moving Coil Phono Cartridge

What You Need to Know

Extracting Maximum Detail from Your Vinyl

The Rega Ania Pro is made for music lovers who want to hear more from every record. It builds on the original Ania by adding Rega's advanced Vital profile nude diamond stylus, which reaches deeper into the groove and picks up more of the music pressed into your records.

The result is tighter bass, natural vocals, smooth highs, and a level of detail that can bring familiar albums to life.

A Stylus That Hears More

The biggest upgrade in the Ania Pro is its Vital profile nude diamond stylus. Its shape lets it follow the record groove more closely than a standard elliptical stylus.

You'll hear more low-level detail, cleaner high frequencies, and less distortion, especially during complex musical passages. The stylus is mounted on a lightweight aluminum cantilever that helps it track the groove with speed and accuracy.

A Fast, Low-Mass Moving Coil Design

Inside the Ania Pro is Rega's unique moving coil generator. It uses a powerful neodymium magnet and tiny hand-wound coils to keep moving mass as low as possible.

Less moving mass allows the stylus to react more quickly to changes in the groove. That means better detail, faster transients, and a more natural sound.

Built for Accuracy

The cartridge body is molded from a very rigid material called PPS (Polyphenylene Sulphide) reinforced with glass fibers. This strong body helps reduce unwanted vibration, allowing the stylus to focus on reading the groove instead of picking up extra resonance.

Rega also uses its three-point mounting system, which makes installation easier on compatible Rega tonearms while creating a solid connection between the cartridge and tonearm.

A Perfect Match for Rega Turntables

The Ania Pro was designed to work especially well with the Rega Planar 3, Planar 6, and Planar 8. Pair it with a quality moving coil phono preamp, and you'll hear just how much information your records contain.

Building Your System
