REGAPlanar 1 Plus (Black)

Uses Line Level as opposed to Ceramic/Magnetic inputs, sounds and tracks great right out of the box. I coupled mine to restored Vintage Dynaco PAS-3 Preamp and Home made SE 300B Triode Tube Amp. Sounds phenomenal! Esp on all those old 70's vynyl records you may have laying around in a box in the garage or attic!

The motor does emit a slight noise that can only be heard when a record isn't playing. Otherwise this turn table is fantastic. It looks and sounds great.

This five star review is possible only because of the quality of the seller, Dedicated Audio in Scottsdale. The turntable came out of the box with problems. Crack in dust cover, loose cartridge, missing bolt attachment between tone arm and cartridge. I also needed some advice on eliminating background hum. Dan and Matt with Dedicated Audio were on it. They worked with Rega, got a new dust cover shipped, they promptly sent replacement bolts of different sizes (including a mini LED flashlight to help with installation). They promptly responded to several emails. This could have been a real bummer of an experience, but they were great.With all that said, now that the turntable is in proper working shape, it performs great. Read any of the reviews on Rega and you’ll get the picture. Disappointed that with the out of the box problems, but all’s well that ends well.

I replaced an old Sansui model that I was using to get back into vinyl. I had reservations about a non-bypassable built in phono preamp (in case I wanted a different one in the future), but so far I'm loving the sound. No issues with the built in preamp. Super clean sound. Very detailed.

Super easy plug and play turntable with the built in pre-amp. Nice crystal clear sound highs to lows.
