Angeboten wird „Apheta 2“ von Rega aus der Kategorie „Tonabnehmer MC“ bei audio-markt.de - dem Online-Marktplatz für High-End. Das Inserat mit der Nummer 5797723652 endet am 13.09.2026 um 11:18 Uhr.
This €1,000 ask for a used Rega Apheta is a fair price that sits just above the €937 median of recent EUR listings, comfortably within the typical market range rather than an ambitious outlier. It is not a bargain (which would be below the €802 25th percentile), but it reflects solid value for a condition-rated unit in the current used market.
The Rega Apheta is a highly regarded moving-coil cartridge known for its smooth, detailed sound and excellent tracking, making it a favorite for upgrading mid-tier turntables without breaking the bank. At this price, it offers meaningful upside as a proven performer that pairs well with many amplifiers, especially if the listing includes original accessories or comes from an original owner. With no red flags in condition or missing parts mentioned, this is a straightforward buying opportunity for enthusiasts seeking reliable MC performance.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Rega Research, founded in 1973 in Essex, England, by Roy Gandy and Tony Relph, emerged from Gandy's lifelong passion for vinyl playback. A Ford engineer and music enthusiast, Gandy built his first turntable, the Planet, in his spare time, blending the founders' surnames to create the Rega name. From humble beginnings in a derelict mill, the company quickly gained traction with early models like the Planar 2 and Planar 3, establishing its heritage as a British hi-fi pioneer dedicated to precision engineering and hand-assembly.
Rega specializes in turntables and tonearms, its cornerstone products, but has expanded into a full ecosystem including cartridges, integrated amplifiers like the Elicit and Brio, phono stages such as the Fono, and speakers like the Ela series. While early efforts included loudspeakers and electronics from the 1980s onward, the brand prioritizes vinyl-centric components over headphones, DACs, or cables, all designed in-house for musical fidelity using specialist materials and tight tolerances.
Rega holds a revered position in the high-end hi-fi market as a niche boutique icon, prized by audiophiles for affordable, lifetime-quality performance that emphasizes music over gimmicks. Globally exported to over 50 countries from its Essex facility employing more than 150, it remains a symbol of British ingenuity, with turntables like the Planar series securing enduring loyalty among vinyl revivalists.
