Rega Planar 3 Nd5 MM Turntable (new for 2024)
Couldn't load pickup availability
The Rega Planar 3 Nd5 (2024) Turntable was developed over 10 years and promises to deliver ‘next level’ performance from the factory fited Nd5 moving magnet cartridge
The Planar 3 Nd5 embodies an evolved design philosophy, aiming for enhanced performance and sound clarity. At its core is a lightweight acrylic laminated plinth, strengthened by an improved double brace system. This system is strategically mounted between the tonearm and the main hub bearing, creating a structurally sound "stressed beam" assembly. This design ensures rigidity, preventing energy absorption and unwanted resonance, which can distort the music.
The factory fitted Nd5 moving magnet cartridge is a world first to use ultra-high powered Neodymium magnets, the aluminium cantilever is fitted with a precision perfect elliptical nude diamond stylus. This profile provides exceptional tracking accuracy and extracts greater levels of detail from the vinyl surface.
The Planar 3 factory fitted with the Nd5 cartridge is offered at a discounted rate compared to when purchased separately, offering exeptional value and performance.
