The Rega Planar 3 is the latest version of Rega's most iconic turntable, a multiple What Hi-Fi? Product of the Year winner. This package comes with the RB330 tonearm and an Ortofon 2M Red moving magnet cartridge fitted, giving a lively, detailed and engaging sound that suits a wide range of systems.
Rega's RB330 tonearm is hand-assembled with patented ultra-low-friction bearings in a stiff, lightweight housing, with a new bias adjustment, an integrated arm clip and Rega's custom aluminium arm tube. It is mounted on a lightweight acrylic-laminated plinth reinforced with Rega's Double Brace technology, which ties the tonearm mounting and main bearing together for a stable, rigid structure. A 24V low-noise, low-vibration motor with the advanced EBLT drive belt turns a 12 mm polished Optiwhite float-glass platter.
It plays 33-1/3 and 45 RPM records, with speed changed by hand at the pulley, or electronically with the optional Rega Neo PSU (sold separately), which connects via the mini DIN socket. The Planar 3 has no built-in phono stage, so connect it to an amplifier with a MM phono input or a separate phono stage. It comes with a clear dust cover in high-gloss black, white or red, or light oak effect. Bought at Blacknote, the Planar 3 comes with Rega's lifetime warranty against manufacturing defects.
