Technical Specifications

Why It Stands Out

The Planar10 represents the pinnacle of Regas turntable engineering combining ultralightweight construction, ceramic structural components and precision machining to minimize resonance, unwanted energy transfer and mechanical noise. With the RB3000 tonearm and ceramic platter working in harmony under a tightly controlled 24V motor + PSU system, the Planar10 delivers speed stability, dynamic range, bass control and microdetail retrieval seldom found in consumergrade turntables. Whether youre playing delicate acoustic recordings or dense orchestral mixes, this deck reveals clarity, timing, and spatial depth with unmatched fidelity.

Perfect For

• Audiophiles seeking a longterm reference vinyl playback system.
• Listeners upgrading from midrange decks who want a dramatic leap in resolution, detail, and dynamics.
• Anyone assembling a serious hifi rig especially with highend MC cartridges and premium amplification.
• Vinyl purists demanding speed accuracy, low noise floor and maximum grooveextraction from their records.
