Rega Planar 6 RS Edition

The Planar 6 RS Edition (Rega Special) adopts many key engineering features from the next tier Planar 8 model whilst retaining the classic Rega form factor and dustcover. The ultra lightweight high rigidity plinth makes the perfect platform to mount the precision RB880 tonearm which is factory fitted and expertly aligned with one of two award winning cartridge options depending on taste, the Nd9 moving magnet cartridge or the Ania moving coil.

-------

The Rega Planar 6 RS Edition is constructed using our unique Tancast 8 foam core plinth finished with an aluminium metal skin HP laminate with matching edging. This assembly creates a highly ridged ultra-light platform, ideal for mounting advanced components whilst reducing resonance. Like the standard Planar 6, the RS Edition includes a custom matched Neo MK2 PSU, and a hand tuned low noise 24v motor which drives the aluminium sub platter. In addition, this is now driven via an upgraded CNC twin drive pulley and two Rega Reference EBLT drive belts for improved accuracy and speed control. To complete the package the precision RB880 tonearm (usually found on the Planar 8) depending on preference is supplied mounted with the highly acclaimed Nd9 moving magnet cartridge  or Ania moving coil to complete the ultimate Planar 6 package.
