Rega Planar 6 Exact Open Box Tradeback w Box & Accessories

For sale is an excellent, barely used Rega Planar 6 turntable with a mounted Exact cartridge. Extremely low play hours! It was owned for a few days before being returned for its small factory defection. In the photos you will see a small mark on the back of the dustcover; this is a factory imperfection. It is basically a heat transfer mark which cannot be removed, but it is small and not very noticeable. It does not affect the shape or texture of the dustcover. Despite its minor imperfection, it sounds wonderful with the Exact cartridge and plays like new. THIS IS A CLOSE TO NEW TURNTABLE AS A USED TABLE CAN BE, EXCEPT FOR THE SMALL MARK ON THE DUST COVER.

Includes the original box, manual, all accessories, and warranty.

The Planar 6 is built around the huge success of the RP8 and RP10 turntables. It is the first new Rega turntable to be constructed with an ultra lightweight Tancast 8 polyurethane foam core plinth (a material developed for the aerospace industry). This material is sandwiched between a new HPL (high pressure laminate). HPL is exceptionally thin whilst extremely rigid and is presented in a stunning Polaris matt grey finished with high gloss polymer black edge trim.

The Planar 6 now benefits from a single piece, machined aluminum sub-platter, a new 24v motor hand tuned and matched to its own NEO power supply and custom drive pulley fitted with our upgrade drive belt as standard.

The Neo PSU uses the RP10 DSP (digital signal processing) generator built upon a high stability crystal. The DSP generator will divide the accurate signal from the crystal to the exact frequency required to turn the platter at the selected speed. The DSP generator will also produce a near perfect sinusoidal waveform to drive the motor. This, along with an efficient drive amplifier, generates a 24V AC balanced signal of less than 0.15% distortion, which is completely un-affected by any changes in the mains/line voltage and conditions. This then drives the turntables anti-vibration circuit, which is situated beneath the turntable
