Ania

The Ania was inspired by the success of our Apheta and Aphelion MC models. Ania uses the same complex hand wound micro coil found in the rest of the range, and is housed in a unique PPS highly rigid body. This body is an exceptionally accurate design that includes Rega’s three point fixing to optimise connection to the tonearm headshell and automatically sets overhang when fitted to a Rega tonearm. The new body is protected by a CAD designed, clear rigid cover to protect the internal fine wires, making handling whilst fitting, safe and risk free. The Ania features a super high-powered, neodymium magnet and a coil meticulously hand wound on to an iron micro cross. This miniature assembly allows us greater freedom to track the vinyl groove ensuring even more detail is extracted from the vinyl.

Welcome to the world of moving coils

Rega’s Moving Coil cartridge design is unique in its approach to achieving an ultra-low mass generator which is undamped (no tie wire) using a unique rhomboid pivot for the cantilever powered by a purpose designed, exclusive to Rega, Neodymium magnet system. This type of design requires a zero-tolerance engineered cartridge body which is Rega’s area of expertise and with the Apheta 3 and Aphelion 2 products these bodies are machined from one piece of the highest quality aluminium. This is a difficult and expensive process requiring all of Rega’s years of experience to achieve. In particular, the “zero” tolerancing of the body is required in the alignment and dimension of the pivot pad mounting hole and the magnet mechanism mounting hole relationship.

Key Features

  • Iron micro cross assembly
  • One of the worlds smallest MC generators
  • Cutting edge high power Neodymium magnets
  • Elliptical profile stylus
  • Aluminium cantilver
  • Coil constructed from 0.018 mm fine wire
  • Lifetime warranty against manufacture defects

When we decided to produce a Moving Coil cartridge at half the cost of the Apheta 3, the special aluminium body could not be used, it was simply too expensive. The solution lay in an unusual polymer/glass combination called Polyphenylene Sulphide (PPS-Fortron). With 40% glass, this material could be moulded and would solve the cost problem. The special attributes of this material are its hardness and stability in shape and dimension post moulding, both critical for the performance of Ania. Now came the challenge. Rega designed and prototyped using SLA systems in just a few months, proving the validity of the design direction. Now we had to design a production mould tool capable of extreme accuracy and long life. PPS is a difficult polymer to mould and requires special attention to how the mould tool operates. Couple this to an almost unmouldable complex shape of the Ania body and a very considerable challenge faced the Rega engineers and the toolmakers chosen.

The toolmakers are of the highest technical skill level, using the most accurate Swiss EDM CNC machines, their regular customers being the military and medical industries, routinely working down to a micron (one thousandth of a millimetre). To achieve this intricate body shape required the most complex high pressure injection mould tool that Rega has ever designed.

The tool has eight major parts, four of which must move in perfect synchronicity with each other to achieve each cartridge body. The design and manufacture of this “work of art” took an entire year to produce and was made exclusively by the most senior toolmaker requiring all his lifetime of artisanal experience.

Combine this special PPS body with its high specification stainless steel inserts, a unique rhomboid pivot system, a tried and tested high performance, diamond tipped elliptical stylus cantilever with low mass moving coil generator assembly and you have new market leading musicality, performance, speed, clarity, and detail as never before at this price.

Dermatologist-Recommended, Gentle Coverage with Added Sun Protection
Size: 1.7 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Size: 1.7 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
This Eucerin Tinted Moisturizer was recommended to me by my dermatologist after having MOHS surgery performed on my face twice. At that point, sun protection became non-negotiable. He felt that the moisturizer with SPF 30 that was already part of my skincare routine was not sufficient on its own and suggested adding this product for better daily protection. I’m so glad I followed his advice. This tinted moisturizer provides lightweight, natural-looking coverage that evens out my skin tone without feeling heavy or settling into fine lines. It blends easily and leaves my skin looking healthy and polished, not made-up. What I appreciate most is how hydrating and gentle it is. My skin can be sensitive, especially after procedures, and this has caused no irritation or breakouts. It wears comfortably all day and layers well with other skincare products when needed. The coverage is sheer, so it won’t replace foundation if you want full coverage, but it’s perfect for everyday wear and gives me the confidence to step out with minimal makeup while knowing my skin is protected. I would highly recommend this to anyone who has sensitive skin, a history of skin cancer or procedures, or who simply wants reliable sun protection with a natural finish.

The Lazy Makeup Day MVP
Size: 1.7 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
This has become my easy low-maintenance face day product. It gives just enough tint to even things out while still giving solid SPF coverage, so I can skip foundation without feeling totally bare-faced. The finish feels lightweight, my skin stays comfortable all day, and the color blended into my skin way better than I expected from a “universal” tint.

Overall good aesthetic result for mineral sunscreen, but some downsides
Size: 1.7 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
It is quite good overall, it blends in perfectly to my medium-light warm tone skin. There is no white tint. It seems effective in terms of SFP and doesn't leave a greasy or heavy feel, ends up looking lightly glowy but reasonably dry to the touch. I'm not sure you'd want to apply it thick enough to substitute for foundation. What I don't like - Like makeup the color can rub off on clothes etc. - Doesn't seem to reapply very well, leads to pilling, and also rubbing my face at all leads to pilling. It's very "don't touch it again after you applied once" - Quite hard to remove with normal cleanser, I think I might need to remove it with oil or something?

Way too heavy & greasy for combination skin
Size: 1.7 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Ugh this tinted sunscreen is such a let-down. I was excited to find an option that's a mineral sunscreen, with tinting that's supposed to work for all skin tones, is made with non-comedogenic ingredients, and is a more reasonable price than what my old tinted sunscreen now costs. I saw mixed reviews on the greasiness / heaviness of this sunscreen, but decided to give it a try, especially because I have combo skin that gets pretty dry in the winter... but wish I had listened to the people who said this is overwhelmingly thick. Pros: the tint works fairly well for my light-to-medium warm-toned skin (although you can see in my video it doesn't blend at all well with my hand's skin tone... so can't imagine this will be universal), it doesn't irritate my combination skin that can be very sensitive, and hasn't blocked my pores. Cons: This feels like I'm smearing peanut butter on my face - it is such a thick and oily consistency. I have combination skin, with some areas that are especially dry right now in a northern winter climate... but this is not what I would call "moisturizing" - it's greasiness that is impossible to rub in, doesn’t dry down, and instead just sits on the skin (and I'm not even using close to the amount of sunscreen you're supposed to in order to get the true SPF coverage). I use tinted sunscreen to replace the need for a BB cream or foundation, and this unfortunately would never be appropriate for everyday wear.
