A new and improved turntable
On the new Planar 6, there have been a lot of improvements since the old P6. The predecessor was equipped with an Exact MM pickup, but the new one can be selected with both an Exact MM and an Ania MC pickup. This way you can choose the variant of Planar 6 that best suits your listening preferences. In other words, whether you want the MM's more dynamic sound production or the MC's higher level of detail is up to you.
Another huge improvement to the Planar 6 is its all-new plinth, which takes its inspiration from Rega's far more expensive Planar 8 and Planar 10 models. It is therefore built in a sandwhick construction with an ultra-light foam core and a layer of high-pressure laminate, which is both incredibly thin and stiff. Both of these properties ensure that the weight of the turntable is kept as low as possible, while at the same time ensuring optimal rigidity, so that the ultimate turntable can be created. It's all finished off by a stunning matte gray Polaris finish and a high-gloss black trim.
On top of the fantastic plinth is mounted the brand new RB-330 tonearm, which is the culmination of more than 35 years of experience. The brand new bearing housing and tonearm design ensures an extremely stable and almost frictionless movement, which enables it to collect more information from your vinyls than ever before. In addition, there is Rega's upgraded raised drive belt, glass plate and the new Neo-PSU power supply, which takes its solutions from the top model RP10 to guarantee accurate revolutions and optimal anti-vibration control.
The Rega Planar 6 can be purchased in several different variants. It can be supplied with Rega Exact pickup, Rega Ania pickup and Rega Ania PRO fitted, or it can be supplied without pickup. Rega's external Neo-PSU power supply is included with all variants.
