The newly launched Planar 2 was developed over two years of vigorous research, released alongside the Planar 3. The Planar 2 makes use of the company's highly adept RB220 tonearm. This tonearm incorporates a new ultra-low friction design, completely bespoke to Rega, zero play ball bearings, housed within a state of the art, more rigid yet more lightweight bearing housing. This bearing housing was designed with a new automatic bias setting, removing the requirement for the user to set the bias. This means that the turntable is essentially plugged and play right from the box, bar some simple arm balancing.
The Planar 2 features a new 11mm self-securing brass bearing, which offers a better fit and reduces stress on the bearing to prevent the transfer of potential energy that may otherwise distress or degrade the integrity of the sound quality. The platter makes use of a newly developed float glass 'Optiwhite' 10mm design, which drastically improves the accuracy of the platter.
The high-gloss acrylic laminated plinth is stiffer and better than before, improved both aesthetically and ergonomically with the new power switch positioning. The plinth comes in two finishes; a gloss black or a glossy white.

Rega has set out to disrupt the sub £500 integrated amplifier market with their new IO integrated amplifier. This all-new amplifier is based on one of our favourites, the award-winning Brio. The pre-amplifier features a motorised, high-quality ALPS Blue stereo volume potentiometer, under control via both IR remote(included) or chunky front panel knob. The new IO features a high-quality Moving Magnet phono input stage, for simple connection to a turntable (We recommend the Rega Planar 1 or Planar 2), along with two additional line-level inputs for connection to a CD Player or Network Streamer. The IO also features a high-quality headphone output and a hefty 30 Watts per channel capable of driving any bookshelf speaker and even some floor standing speakers, thanks to it's generously rated toroidal mains power transformer, high current bridge rectifier and high quality, long life smoothing capacitors. The new iO amplifier pairs perfectly with Rega's new Kyte loudspeakers but would also work well with most high-quality loudspeakers on the market.
Monitor Audio Silver 50 Bookshelf Speaker
Key Features:
- 25 mm C-CAM (Ceramic-Coated Aluminium/Magnesium) tweeter, featuring vented Neo magnet system, optimised for lower distortion and cleaner sounding treble -
- 51/4" bass/mid driver with concave ‘dished’ C-CAM cone profile for optimal damping and improved mid-range clarity -
- RST Cone profile for improved diaphragm rigidity and lower distortion -
- Cast polymer driver chassis design for improved rigidity and damping characteristics -
The Monitor Audio Silver 50 is a small compact speaker, but that doesn't mean it's lacking performance, providing the listener with an extravagant listening experience with big sound and impressive dynamics. Powerful magnets in the Silver 50 drive large 32mm voice coils to ensure impressive power handling and incredibly low distortion. The beauty of this speaker is that you have a vast amount of freedom when it comes to placement, wherever the placement no audio quality will be lost, highly recommended speaker for those who are either looking for an upgrade or yet, a starting point.
