The iconic ‘Planar 3’ 

Replacing the multi award
winning and five times What Hi-Fi? Product of the Year (RP3) was never going to
be an easy task. It took our team of designers headed up by
Rega's Roy Gandy, two years to develop the all new 'Planar 3'
following the biggest re-design of the iconic 'Three' model ever
seen.

Our team have worked
tirelessly to improve every aspect of this turntable offering
improved ergonomics, usability and first and foremost, sonic
performance.The new ‘Planar 3’ is truly a new turntable for 2016 carrying
over just two components from the previous model.
