The state-of-the-art Planar 1 from Rega is the company's most user-friendly deck so far, with a preset bias force on the newly developed RB110 tonearm - the Planar 1 is essentially ready from the box. All that's required is for the balance weight to be pushed onto the back of the tonearm as far as it will go, remove the stylus guard, and then hear your music as it is intended to be heard.

Every element of Planar 1 has been carefully and vigorously improved upon earlier designs. The Planar 1 now runs a 24v, low-noise, synchronous motor. This drastically reduces any potential vibration that may otherwise negatively affect the sound of your record. The turntable comes supplied with the RB110 tonearm as standard. This arm uses Rega's exclusive zero-bearing design Including an automatic bias adjustment negating the need for the user to set bias, making this the most ‘Plug & Play turntable that Rega has ever manufactured. New ergonomically, re-designed and stiffer headshell for improved usability and appearance

The Rega Planar 1 is the perfect jumping-on point for someone looking to start on their Vinyl adventure. Easy to set up and use with an easily replaceable cartridge and belt when the time comes. All you need is an amplifier and a pair of speakers and you can start listening. If you don't have an amplifier or speakers, the Rega System One may be worth considering as it comes with everything you need to get started, including cables.

Comes supplied with Rega's clear lid as standard.

Please note, that turntables such as the Rega Planar 1 require a phono stage to work and will produce no sound without one.
Many amplifiers have built-in phono stages, such as the Rega io or Brio.
They can often be identified by the RCA input marked 'phono' on the rear of the amplifier.
If being used with active (powered) speakers or with an amplifier without an integrated phono stage, a separate phono stage such as the Rega Fono A2D or Fono MM will be required.
