Rega Planar 1 Plus Turntable with Phono Stage (Matte Black)

Description

PLANAR 1 PLUS

All the features of the award-winning Planar 1 turntable
with the addition of a built-in high quality MM phono stage, making this the
ultimate ‘Plug and Play’ turntable.

The Ultimate ‘Plug and Play’ Turntable

We asked ourselves, how do we make the most successful
turntable we have ever made sound better, be even easier to use and be more
accessible to a wider audience? The answer was simple; our engineers added a
custom designed, high quality, moving magnet phono stage based around the
multi-award-winning What Hi-Fi? 5 Star Fono Mini.

For 2021 we have a fresh new look for the Planar 1 PLUS. We
are delighted to introduce a stunning new matt finish. Every single aspect of
the Planar 1 PLUS has been meticulously designed to improve performance. The
Planar 1 PLUS uses a bespoke 24 V, low noise, synchronous motor to reduce
vibration combined with our handmade RB110 tonearm fitted with our unique Rega
designed ultra-low friction bearings. We have added our latest drive belt
technology the EBLT belt which delivers greater accuracy and improved speed
performance. If you are looking to get back into vinyl and want serious
performance that will last you a lifetime, then look no further.

BUILT-IN PHONO STAGE

The built-in phono stage is a high specification
pre-amplifier. It is designed to amplify the signal from a moving magnet
cartridge to a suitable level for all line level inputs of an appropriate
system or audio amplifier. This allows simple connection to a wide variety of
products using either the standard twin phono to phono lead (supplied) or phono
to 3.5 mm plug (not supplied).

TONEARM

RB110 tonearm built with Rega designed, bespoke, ultra-low
friction bearings (Patent Pending). Pre-set bias assembly negating the need for

ever manufactured. Ergonomically, re-designed and stiffer headshell for
improved usability and appearance.
