Lightweight MDF Cabinet & Anti-Vibration Design
The Rega Planar 2 follows the company’s design philosophy of using low-mass, high-rigidity materials. Its plinth is made from acrylic-laminated MDF with a Gloss White finish, with the power switch integrated into the underside for a clean look. The turntable rests on three redesigned anti-vibration feet that improve stability and damp transmitted vibrations.
Rega RB220 Tonearm & Low-Friction Bearing
The turntable features the hand-built Rega RB220 9-inch tonearm, with a single-piece, ultra-low-mass aluminium tube. The tonearm incorporates newly designed ultra-low-friction bearings in a custom housing, ensuring virtually frictionless movement. It also features automatic anti-skating adjustment for easy setup and use.
24V Motor & Optiwhite Glass Platter
Motion is transmitted via the advanced EBLT belt by a quiet, low-noise 24V motor, paired with a new control board (PCB) to reduce vibration. The turntable features a 10 mm-thick "Optiwhite" Float Glass platter with improved manufacturing precision, providing high inertia and stable rotation, supported by a redesigned 11 mm-thick brass bearing housing.
Pre-Installed Rega Carbon Cartridge & Accessories
The Planar 2 comes factory-set with the Rega Carbon moving-magnet (MM) cartridge, which features a conical stylus and delivers balanced analogue sound across a wide frequency range. The package includes an acrylic dust cover and an integrated RCA connection cable.
