Ultra-Light
The Planar 6 is built around the huge success of the RP8 and RP10 turntables. It is the first new Rega turntable to be constructed with an ultra-lightweight Tancast 8 polyurethane foam core plinth (a material developed for the aerospace industry). This material is sandwiched between a new HPL (high pressure laminate). HPL is exceptionally thin whilst extremely rigid and is presented in a stunning Polaris matt grey finished with high gloss polymer black edge trim.
The Planar 6 now benefits from a single piece, machined aluminium sub-platter, a new 24 V motor hand tuned and matched to its own Neo power supply and custom drive pulley fitted with our upgrade drive belt as standard.

"The Rega Planar 6 is a heck of a turntable. Not just for the money but in the general scheme of things, only the obsessives like myself really need anything better. If it weren’t for the RP8 I would challenge you to find a better turntable and arm combo for less than three times the asking price here."

"Listen to it with remotely capable supporting equipment though and the Rega shows it has been worth the wait. This is a startlingly good turntable and an elegant demonstration of Rega’s design philosophy continuing to evolve and improve."

"Easily the best moving magnet Rega has ever made and pretty much as good as it gets under £500."
