Rega believes the patent pending Nd range is the first in the world to use ultra-high powered neodymium magnets.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach Nd5 is meticulously hand-made by Rega's highly skilled technicians. The stylus profile is a perfect elliptical nude diamond. This is a true ellipse created by an elliptical grinding process made from polycrystalline manmade diamond. The design uses brand new generator geometry with perfect symmetry to achieve accurate channel balance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Nd5 also has an optimized pole gap for superior linearity and crosstalk characteristics. This provides a far wider soundstage than the previous models. This new cartridge is created with miniaturized parallel coils wound in-house utilising 38-micron wire with just 1,275 turns. This produces a low-inductance, low-impedance generator giving vastly improved high-frequency response. In keeping with Rega's commitment to sustainability, the Nd range is supplied in 100% recyclable packaging.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eNd Magnet Technology\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOften used in moving coil designs, Rega believes the Nd5 is the first moving magnet to use a neodymium (Nd) N55 magnet. This is the world’s most powerful commercially available magnet and is a crucial component that makes this unique design possible by delivering extra power than standard bar magnet designs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eGlass-Filled PPS Body\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe complete assembly is housed in Rega's zero-tolerance, injection-molded, glass-filled polyphenylene sulfide body (PPS), which is a lightweight and highly rigid material. A low-mass body reduces stress on the tonearm bearings and aids free movement which is critical in accurate vinyl replay. This new body design was inspired by Rega's hugely successful MC range.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCantilever and Stylus Profile\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Nd5 aluminium cantilever is fitted with a precision perfect elliptical nude diamond stylus. This profile provides exceptional tracking accuracy and extracts greater levels of detail from the vinyl surface.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHandmade stereo cartridge\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHighly rigid lightweight PPS body\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePerfect elliptical nude diamond profile stylus\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAluminum cantilever\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNeodymium magnet\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRega three-point mounting system\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e100% recyclable packaging\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNominal Output Voltage:\u003c\/strong\u003e 5-6 mV\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStylus:\u003c\/strong\u003e Perfect elliptical nude diamond \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCoil:\u003c\/strong\u003e Miniaturized parallel\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracking Pressure:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.75g\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rega","offers":[{"title":"Default","offer_id":48531672334520,"sku":"ND5","price":545.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1564\/1247\/files\/Nd5_gallery_1__1.jpg?v=1741629631","url":"https:\/\/upscaleaudio.pro\/products\/rega-nd5-moving-magnet-cartridge","provider":"Upscale Audio","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
