Rega Planar 6 Turntable

The Planar 6 has one goal, to reproduce your vinyl as accurately as possible. Rega has engineered every aspect of this turntable to extract as much detail from the vinyl surface as possible. Advanced materials and engineering solutions have been used throughout the design to ensure the greatest level of performance. The Neo PSU offers electronic speed change, advanced anti-vibration control and user-adjustable electronic fine speed adjustment only found on the RP10 until now.

The Rega Planar 6 is built around the massive success of the RP10 and RP8 turntables. It is the first new Rega turntable to be constructed with Tancast 8 polyurethane foam core plinth (an ultra-lightweight material developed for the aerospace industry). This material is sandwiched between a newly developed HPL (high-pressure laminate). HPL is incredibly thin whilst extremely rigid and is presented in Rega's stunning Polaris matt grey finished with high-gloss polymer black edge trim.

The Planar 6 now benefits from a machined single-piece aluminium sub-platter, a new 24v motor hand tuned and matched to its own NEO power supply and a custom drive pulley fitted with our upgrade drive belt as standard.

The Neo PSU uses the RP10 DSP (digital signal processing) generator built upon a high-stability crystal. The DSP generator will divide the accurate signal from the crystal to the exact frequency required to turn the platter at the selected speed. The DSP generator will also produce a near-perfect sinusoidal waveform to drive the motor. This, along with an efficient drive amplifier, generates a 24V AC balanced signal of less than 0.15% distortion, which is completely unaffected by any changes in the mains/line voltage and conditions. This then drives the turntable anti-vibration circuit, which is situated beneath the turntable.
