Product Summary
The Rega Planar 3 RS is a special-edition turntable created for listeners who want to extract even more performance from one of Rega’s most respected record players. It takes the proven Planar 3 platform and elevates it with a more advanced plinth construction, upgraded drive system and a carefully matched package that is designed to deliver a more precise, more revealing and more rewarding vinyl experience straight out of the box.
A big part of the Planar 3 RS appeal is the way it combines genuine audiophile engineering with everyday usability. Rega’s dark brushed metallic aluminium-skinned HPL plinth gives the deck a more premium look and a stiffer, more controlled platform, while the factory-fitted Nd5 moving magnet cartridge and custom-matched Neo Mk2 PSU help unlock greater detail, speed stability and musical insight. That makes it especially attractive for customers who want a turntable package that already feels thoughtfully optimised rather than something that still needs obvious upgrading.
The Planar 3 RS also has the sort of long-term ownership appeal that makes a high-quality turntable feel special. Its RB330 tonearm, smoked dust cover and refined finish all contribute to a package that looks as serious as it sounds. For customers wanting a premium Rega deck with stronger performance, elegant styling and an especially complete specification, the Planar 3 RS is a very compelling choice.
