Whether you're new to analog or getting back in the habit, Planar 1 reveals the kinds of information, warmth, detail, and involving presentation for which vinyl is adored - the very same emotion-triggering qualities cheap, and cheaply made, entry-level 'tables cannot deliver.

Description
Completely Redesigned RB220 Tonearm and Pre-Installed Carbon MM Cartridge Make the Rega Planar 2 Turntable a Price-to-Performance Champion: Authoritative Analog Sound, Easy Operation The presence of the spectacular, completely revamped Rega RB220 tonearm on the Planar 2 is reason enough to become ensnared by the analog magic produced by this exceptional turntable . Featuring a low-resonance aluminum arm wand, patent-pending ball bearings housed within an extra-stiff vertical bearing, three-point plinth mounting, and a new auto-biasing system that works with a wide variety of cartridges, RB220 is essentially plug-and-play - save for the simple act of balancing it. Its insightful, detailed performance and ability to extract scads of information from vinyl LPs justify Rega' s decision to spend years perfecting it - and warrants spending a little extra on Planar 2 when compared to its little brother, Planar 1. Yet the RB220 is just one of many sonic-first benefits offered by Planar 2 , which carries on the tradition of a model that originally launched in 1976. Such longevity doesn't happen by mistake. Rather, it comes about via excellent build, design, and sonics - qualities that help you hear more from your records at a reasonable cost - the very characteristics Planar 2 offers in spades. "The ability to tie all the musical strands together and paint them on a precise and spacious canvas seems to come easy to the Rega, and in that aspect its delivery just works." - What Hi-Fi? , 5-star review Besides the RB220 , what's new and improved on Planar 2 ? A 24-volt low-noise motor, high-gloss acrylic laminated plinth, 11mm self-securing brass bearing, 10mm float-glass Optiwhite platter, and vibration-reducing feet.
