Description
Innovative Design and Construction Equate to State-of-the-Art Vinyl LP Playback: Rega Planar 8 Turntable Features Triple-Glass Platter, Neo PSU Power Supply, and RB880 Tonearm
Inspired by Rega's pinnacle creation (the Naiad), the company's U.K.-built Planar 8 turntable goes beyond mere evolution and enters a design realm of its very own. Engineered to squeeze out details embedded in LP grooves with a degree that belies its price class, Planar 8 is both practical and luxury analog. An ultra-lightweight skeletal plinth comprised of a polyurethane foam core, double-braced stress-beam assembly, three-piece super-flywheel-effect laminated glass platter, and new RB880 tonearm combine to provide optimal rigidity, dampening, and stiffness. A new, perfectly round drive belt and Rega's Neo PSU power supply deliver immaculate accuracy and user-adjustable control. The option of purchasing Planar 8 with a pre-mounted Ania, Ania Pro, or Apheta 3 moving-coil cartridge heightens its levels of fun and flexibility, not to mention money-saving appeal.
