About the Aria MK3
The Aria MK3 is a fully analog MM/MC phono preamplifier with two completely separate phono stages: one optimized for moving magnet cartridges and one for moving coil cartridges. It uses an external power supply architecture with independent supply sections for each stage, and its aluminum chassis is designed to reduce interference. The MC input is factory configured for Rega MC cartridges and the unit is intended for high-performance vinyl playback systems.
