For the first time, the Planar 3 is manufactured using a special high-pressure laminate (normally used for Planar 6, Planar 8, and Planar 10) to significantly improve the rigidity of the chassis compared to the P3 standard model.
Rega's Double Brace Technology, specifically mounted where increased rigidity is required (between the tonearm and the platter bearing), prevents energy absorption and unwanted resonances that would lead to unnatural distortions in the music. This new premium surface has a stunning satin brushed aluminum finish.
The Planar 3 RS Edition (Rega Special) comes with a Neo PSU MK2 power supply matched to the turntable. The brand new, award-winning Nd5 MM cartridge system is pre-installed at the factory. With these features, the ultimate Planar 3 RS is offered at an incredible price-performance ratio.
The high-quality new plinth is bordered with high-gloss black, which highlights the noble metal finish. The Planar 3 RS comes with a tinted dust cover to ensure it harmonizes perfectly with other hi-fi equipment.
