![]() As they lifted a bright, fluorescent green table out, the sales guy quipped, “What idiot would buy a turntable in this color?” Little did he know that’s been publisher Dorgay’s favorite color since age 6. The P3 is made in the UK and comes with a 1 year warranty covered by the main agent in Singapore.Our publisher has been a Rega fan since the fateful day in the mid-’80s when we happened by our local dealer (Audio Emporium in Milwaukee, Wisconsin) to find them opening a shipment of Planar 3 turntables. New float glass ‘Optiwhite’ polished edge 12 mm – Improved accuracy in manufacture and stunning looks. Re-designed sub platter, improved accuracy and improved stiffness. ![]() SIMPLE SET-UPĮasy to use multi-lingual quick start guide for easy set up SUB PLATTER Supplied as standard / optional lid – plinth protectors – supplied to prevent marks on the plinth and keep it looking its best. New motor cover tray with integrated cooling. Improved new motor control PCB with integration for the addition of Neo PSU for electronic speed change and improved advanced anti-vibration circuit (sold separately). New improved foot to increase stability and reduce vibration transfer. Re-designed brass main hub central bearing, improved fit and construction reducing stress on the bearing itself. Improved thicker 3 mm phenolic bottom brace and new metalised skin phenolic top brace. Available in three stunning high gloss finishes, black, white and red. High gloss acrylic, laminated plinth, stiffer and vastly improved appearance, ergonomically positioned power switch. Extreme stability with almost friction free movement from the new high precision bearing assemblies guarantees to gather more information from your vinyl than ever before. Featuring a brand new bearing housing, and our latest tonearm tube designed using intelligent redistribution of mass ensure this arm will exhibit fewer points of possible resonance. The RB330 tonearm was designed using the latest 3D CAD & CAM technology, and is the culmination of more than 35 years of tonearm design experience. The use of braces instead of the complete skin allows double thickness phenolic resin in these key areas while providing further weight reduction to the plinth which directly addresses the issue of mass absorption and unwanted energy transmission. Equally, heavier mass can transfer more unwanted energy, such as motor or bearing noise directly into the rotating record. This rigid plinth design prevents energy absorption and unwanted resonance, which will add unnatural distortions to the music. A lightweight acrylic laminated plinth strengthened using a new improved double brace system mounted specifically where the increased rigidity is required (between the tonearm mounting and the main hub bearing) which forms a structurally sound “stressed beam” assembly. ![]() The new Planar 3 takes this design philosophy to the next level. Clever use of lightweight particulate core with a highly rigid phenolic resin skin became the foundations of the high level of performance achieved by the now iconic original Planar range. Rega has pioneered the use of lightweight rigid plinths. ![]() ![]() There’s greater transparency here and more resolution of detail too. It sounds considerably cleaner and clearer than its talented predecessor. The new Planar 3 builds strongly on its award-winning predecessor delivering a class-leading combination of sound, build and ease of use. Want the best value on the market? This is it.” – What Hifi? 2017 “This new version is the best P3 yet, adding extra servings of clarity, precision and insight to an already musical sound. The P3 is now factory-fitted with the Exact cartridge. ![]()
