Planar 8 Turntable

The Planar 8 was inspired by Rega’s ultimate reference turntable, the Naiad. From the beginning, this model was conceived not as a simple evolution of the previous RP8, but as a clean-sheet design that captures the essence of the Naiad—delivered at a far more accessible price point. Rega’s goal was to achieve performance levels previously unheard of in this class.

Every aspect of the Planar 8 has been engineered to extract maximum detail from the vinyl surface. Built around an ultra-lightweight plinth, the design incorporates cutting-edge materials and advanced engineering techniques to achieve superior performance.

The Planar 8 comes equipped with the new RB880 tonearm and Neo PSU, which offers:

  • Electronic speed change

  • Advanced anti-vibration control

  • User-adjustable electronic fine speed adjustment for precise motor control

A key design evolution includes the removal of the traditional outer frame found on previous models. In its place is a sleek, removable single-piece dustcover, which further reduces overall mass while improving aesthetics.

he Planar 8 was inspired by the ultimate Rega turntable, the ‘Naiad’. We decided early on that instead of an evolution of the previous RP8, the new Planar 8 was to be 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.
