Planar 8
The Planar 8 was inspired by the ultimate Rega
turntable, the ‘Naiad’. We decided early on that instead of an evolution
of the previous RP8, the new Planar 8 was to be developed and
engineered to encapsulate the essence of ‘Naiad’ at an affordable price.
Our aim was to deliver a level of performance far beyond what has been
achieved at this price point before.
Please note: The Planar 8 will now ship with new look NEO MK2 power supply as standard.
*New
matt white finish available from April 2023 - The white Planar 8 is
supplied with a clear dustcover and clear triple layer float glass
platter.
Engineering masterclass
Every aspect of the Planar 8 is engineered to extract as much
detail from the vinyl surface as possible. We have used the most
advanced materials and engineering solutions built around a supremely
lightweight plinth to ensure the greatest level of performance. The
Planar 8 is supplied with the new RB880 tonearm and Neo PSU as standard
which offers electronic speed change, advanced anti-vibration control
and user adjustable electronic fine speed adjustment to ensure total
accuracy and control over the motor. The outer frame of the previous
model has now been removed and a new stylish, removable, single piece
dustcover has been introduced further reducing the overall mass of the
turntable.
