Legendary class
One of the most iconic turntables of its time, the P3 serves as Rega’s claim to fame as a renowned brand. The P3’s engineering design redefines traditional turntable configurations. And the best part is that it’s a highly affordable entry-level turntable in the world of hi-fi.
Incredible speed stability and control
The circuit board is tuned to every motor in the machine, producing stable speeds and better control. As a result, you get a more accurate rendering of your records.
Advanced RB330 tonearm
Get blown away by the RB330 tonearm, a true work of art created with 3D CAD & CAM technology and more than 35 years of tonearm expertise. With rock-solid stability and velvety smooth movement, prepare to fall in love with your music all over again, as the RB330 reveals a new level of detail in your records.
Outdoing its multi-award-winning older version, the Planar 3 got an overall design and build upgrade. While the changes are subtle, the effects are significant.
Its laminated acrylic plinth is now more stable and rigid thanks to the phenolic braces. These upgrades lead to a more accurate and consistent play for more detailed sound. Meanwhile, the RB330 tonearm–designed using the most up-to-date 3D CAD & CAM technology–is a testament to the decades of expertise and innovation of the company.
And here’s a cool additional feature: You can skip the hassle of manually adjusting your drive belt to your vinyl’s correct RPM speed. Thanks to the P3’s improved motor, you have the option to connect it to the Neo PSU. This allows you to effortlessly change the electronic speed of your turntable with a push of a button.
