Rega Planar 1 Turntable - Customer Trade In

This Rega Planar 1 turntable was traded in by a customer a month after purchase in exchange for a higher-end Rega turntable. The unit has had very little use and is in excellent condition.

The turntable shows very few marks or signs of use and works perfectly. Slight hairline marks may be visible on the high gloss plinth and clear acrylic lid, which is common on all high gloss products & often occurs during cleaning. The turntable will come with its original accessories & box along with Regas' unrivalled lifetime warranty against manufacturer defects.

Key Features

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 as intended to be heard.

Every element of the 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-bearings 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

This is the perfect jumping-on point for anyone who is looking to get into Vinyl playback for the first time.

Comes supplied with Rega's clear lid as standard

Please note, 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.
