Performance beyond price

Every aspect of the Planar 1 has been meticulously crafted to enhance performance. Featuring a bespoke 24 V, low-noise synchronous motor to minimize vibration, paired with Rega’s hand-made RB110 tonearm equipped with the unique Rega-designed ultra-low friction bearings.

Furthermore, the new special edition Walnut effect finish, launching in August and September 2022, is crafted from the same premium high-rigidity laminate utilized in the standard matt P1. This attractive, high-quality finish is complemented by the premium smoked dust cover included as standard, elevating the overall design aesthetic.
