Product Description
Planar 8 & Neo PSU
The Planar 8 was inspired by the ultimate Rega turntable, the ‘Naiad’. Instead of an evolution of the previous RP8, the new Planar 8 was developed and engineered to encapsulate the essence of ‘Naiad’ at an affordable price. Our aim was to deliver a level of performance far beyond what has been achieved at this price point before.
Every aspect of the Planar 8 is engineered to extract as much detail from the vinyl surface as possible. The most advanced materials and engineering solutions built around a supremely lightweight plinth ensure the greatest level of performance. The Planar 8 is supplied with the new RB880 tonearm and Neo PSU as standard which offers electronic speed change, advanced anti-vibration control and user adjustable electronic fine speed adjustment to ensure total accuracy and control over the motor. The outer frame of the previous model has now been removed and a new stylish, removable, single piece dustcover has been introduced further reducing the overall mass of the turntable.
The Planar 8 is available exclusively from Basil Audio with a wide and growing range of cartridges fitted at an attractive package price. Please call us or email if the cartridge of your choice is not listed.
