Other Notes: 

Ortofon LVB250 moving magnet cartridge included with only around 20 hours of use ($999 value, total MSRP $1894). Due to the size of the cartridge, the tonearm has been raised and now makes contact with the dust cover. This does not cause any functional issues but is worth noting.

Please note that this is the RP3, not the current-version Planar 3.

"With so much chatter about high-resolution digital files and new $1,000-and-under DACs introduced on what feels like a monthly basis, it’s refreshing to see this much dedication spent on an equally priced turntable. The RP3 stands as one of the best price/performance ‘tables on the market today. If you can add the Exact and TT-PSU to your budget, all the better. But if not now, they certainly make for a great upgrade path as you go further down the road. Enthusiastically recommended." - Jeff Dorgay, TONE Magazine
