Rega

Replacing the multi award winning and five times What Hi-Fi? Product of the Year (RP3) was never going to be an easy task. It took our team of designers headed up by Rega's Roy Gandy, two years to develop the all new 'Planar 3' following the biggest re-design of the iconic 'Three' model ever seen.Our team have worked tirelessly to improve every aspect of this turntable offering improved ergonomics, usability and first and foremost, sonic performance.The new ‘Planar 3’ is truly a new turntable for 2016 carrying over just two components from the previous model.RB330 tonearm - Designed using the latest 3D CAD & CAM technology, the new RB330 is the culmination of more than 35 years of tonearm design experience.  Featuring a brand new bearing housing, and our latest tonearm tube designed using intelligent redistribution of mass ensure this arm will exhibit fewer points of possible resonance. Extreme stability with almost friction free movement from the new high precision bearing assemblies guarantees to gather more information from your vinyl than ever before. Features:Featuring a new bias assembly, re-designed stiffer vertical bearing housing, integrated arm clip and an improved spring housing with easier to read numbers.Rega made, new low capacitance phono cable with Neutrik plugs,Improved lower friction, precision horizontal and vertical bearingsNew design 100g mild steel balance weight.Plinth - High gloss acrylic, laminated plinth, stiffer and vastly improved appearance, ergonomically positioned power switch.Two plinth finishes at launch: gloss black & gloss whiteDouble braces - Improved thicker 3mm phenolic bottom brace and new metalised skin phenolic top brace.Bearing housing – Re-designed brass main hub central bearing, improved fit and construction reducing stress on the bearing itself.Sub platter - Re-designed sub platter, improved accuracy and improved stiffness.Platter - New float glass ‘Optiwhite’ polished rim 12mm – Improved accuracy in manufacture and stunning looks.Re-designed foot - New improved foot to increase stability and reduce vibration transfer.24V motor - Improved new motor control PCB with integration for the addition of TT-PSU for electronic speed change and improved advanced anti-vibration circuit (sold separately).​​

The Elicit-R has been designed and engineered to the highest standard. The Elicit-R will deliver the best possible audio performance whilst remaining simple to use and easy to setup. Our recent development work in amplifier design circuitry has allowed us to further advance the Elicit-Rperformance by using new and improved power amplifier circuits (based around the hugely successful Rega Brio-R amplifier).Combined with FET discrete line level pre-amplifiers and a programmable stepped attenuator volume control, ensuring greater levels of performance and control over the delivery of power. The Elicit-R is supplied with the new Solaris system remote handset offering full control over this and all of the current ‘R’ range of electronics.Specifications:105 Watts per channel into 8127 Watts per channel into 6162 Watts per channel into 4Input sensitivity for 105 Watts into 8Line inputs (input 1 switch set to line) 1-5 and record - 196mV load 10KPhono (input 1 switch set to phono) - 2mV Load 47K in parallel with 220pFDirect input - 760mV Load 50KPower amplifier gain - 31.6dBRecord output - 196mV for rated inputsPre-amplifier output - 760mV for rated inputsDimensions: W 432mm x D 325mm x H 82mmWeight - 13kg

The Brio has a completely new case to house its improved circuits and parts. It now sits in a fully aluminium two-part case which boosts the Brio’s heat sinking capabilities and improves on Rega’s already solid build quality and reliability. The new Brio has a cleverly integrated headphone socket specially designed to avoid interference with the audio circuit when not in use and as you would expect, a very high specification moving magnet phono stage is built in as standard.Throughout the design process the Brio has been meticulously improved in every aspect, from the quality of materials to the manufacturing process, to make this new Brio a step ahead in Rega’s engineering and design for amplifiers.Specifications: Input 1 (phono) input sensitivity = 2.1mV at 47KΩ in parallel with 220pF.Maximum Input 1 (phono) input level = 100mVInput 2-5 (line) input sensitivity = 210mV at 47kΩMaximum input 2-5 (line) input level = 10.25VPower outputs at 230/115V supply voltage:Headphone output: No load = 8VSource impedance = 109ΩDimensions: 345mm (D) -inc volume control x 216mm (W) x 78mm (H)Weight: 5.1kg
