"Rega has pioneered the use of lightweight, ultra rigid plinths over many years. Our use of lightweight particulate core with a highly rigid phenolic resin skin became the foundations of the high level of performance achieved by the now iconic original Planar range. The new Planar 3 RS Edition takes this design philosophy to the next level using a High Pressure Laminate, (HPL) usually reserved for the Planar 6, Planar 8 and Planar 10 models for increased rigidity. In addition, this premium HPL has a stunning brushed metal dark aluminium skin with a beautiful satin finish. You will also find our double brace system mounted specifically where the increased rigidity is required (between the tonearm mounting and the main hub bearing) which forms a structurally sound 'stressed beam' assembly." - Rega
