Rega Planar 6 Turntable (What HiFi? Awards 2021) Winner of the What HiFi? Awards 2020, the Rega Planar 6 turntable is engineered to reproduce your vinyl records with exceptional accuracy and detail. Featuring advanced materials and innovative engineering, it delivers outstanding performance for audiophiles seeking premium sound quality. Overview The Planar 6 builds on the success of the RP8 and RP10 models, incorporating an ultra-lightweight Tancast 8 polyurethane foam core plinth—a material originally developed for the aerospace industry. This core is sandwiched between a new high-pressure laminate (HPL) with a stunning Polaris matt grey finish and high gloss black polymer edge trim, combining rigidity with elegant aesthetics. It features a single-piece machined aluminium sub-platter, a new 24V low noise synchronous motor hand-tuned and matched to its dedicated NEO power supply, and a custom drive pulley fitted with an upgraded white drive belt as standard. The NEO PSU offers electronic speed change, advanced anti-vibration control, and user-adjustable fine speed adjustment previously exclusive to the RP10. The NEO power supply uses a digital signal processing (DSP) generator built on a high stability crystal, producing a near-perfect sinusoidal waveform with less than 0.15% distortion. This ensures consistent platter speed unaffected by mains voltage fluctuations and powers the turntable’s anti-vibration circuit located beneath the unit. The Planar 6 is available with the recommended Ania MC cartridge factory fitted, offering an attractive package with a discount when purchased together.
