The Rega Planar 10 turntable is inspired by Rega's ultimate model, the Naiad, and is engineered to deliver exceptional performance by using advanced materials and innovative engineering. It features an ultra-lightweight Tancast 8 polyurethane foam core plinth sandwiched between high-pressure laminate layers, making it 30% lighter yet more rigid than previous models. The turntable incorporates Double Brace Technology (DB Technology) with a ceramic top brace and phenolic resin bottom brace to create a rigid, resonance-free platform between the tonearm and central bearing. The RB3000 tonearm is precision-engineered with low mass and improved bias housing. The platter is made from bespoke ceramic oxide, diamond-cut for ultimate accuracy and speed stability. The 24V synchronous motor is controlled by the advanced P10 power supply unit (PSU), which uses a DSP generator with a high-stability crystal to provide near-perfect sinusoidal waveform motor power, electronic speed change, fine speed adjustment, and vibration reduction. The Planar 10 comes with a reference EBLT drive belt and is available in two matte finishes: Polaris grey and white (new for 2023). It offers a lifetime warranty against manufacturing defects and is designed to extract more information from vinyl grooves than ever before. Dimensions with dust cover are 420 x 115 x 350 mm, and the turntable weighs 4.7 kg, with the PSU weighing 3 kg. The P10 PSU dimensions are 218 x 80 x 320 mm. The Planar 10 is a manual belt-drive analog turntable that represents a significant evolution in Rega's design philosophy, focusing on low mass, high rigidity, and advanced motor control for superior sound quality.
