The Rega Planar 1 (often called the P1) is widely considered one of the benchmark entry-level audiophile turntables on the market. Hand-assembled in the UK, it is engineered for li steners who want serious hi-fi sound without the complex, tedious setup usually required by high-end turntables. Key Features & Build "Plug and Play" Setup: Designed to be set up in under a minute. The anti-skate (bias) is pre-set, and the counterweight slides on to a designated notch without needing tracking force gauges. RB110 Tonearm: Hand-assembled tonearm featuring ultra-low-friction, patent-pending bearings that minimize unwanted movement and distortion. Rega Carbon Cartridge: Comes factory-fitted with a pre-aligned Moving Magnet (MM) cartridge, featuring a replaceable stylus for easy maintenance. 24V Low-Noise Motor: Uses a 24-volt synchronous AC motor combined with an aluminium pulley and Rega's EBLT drive belt for improved speed stability and low vibration. Phenolic Resin Platter: A 23mm, higher-mass platter designed with a flywheel effect to maintain consistent rotational speed. Finishes: Available in Matt Black, Matt White, and a Walnut effect laminate, each supplied with a clear smoked dust cover. Show more
