Know before you buy
This set is designed for most Rega Planar, RP, and P series turntables, including the Planar 1, RP1, P1, P2, P3, RP3, P5, RP6, and P7. Please note that it is not compatible with the Rega P9.
Because this platter is 12mm thick, it may alter the vertical tracking angle on some entry-level models. If you notice a change in sound quality after installation, you may need to adjust your tonearm height or tracking force to compensate.
The 100% wool mat provides a softer, more stable surface that effectively dampens unwanted vibrations and reduces static buildup. This results in a cleaner, more isolated signal from your records.
Yes, it is designed as a direct fit for compatible Rega models. Simply remove your existing platter and mat, and place the new glass platter and wool mat directly onto the sub-platter.
The glass platter is durable and easy to maintain. You can keep it clean by wiping it with a soft, lint-free microfiber cloth to remove dust, which helps prevent surface scratches and keeps your vinyl playback pristine.
