The new Planar 2 was developed over the past two years alongside the recently released Planar 3. Featuring the brand new RB220 tonearm which is packed with groundbreaking new features. A new 24v, low noise motor, acrylic laminated plinth, newly designed central bearing and so much more. Every feature of this innovative new turntable is designed to extract the maximum amount of information and detail from your vinyl collection.
The Planar 2 is now available factory fitted with either the Carbon or the ND3 moving magnet cartridges, the latter an upgrade at a substantially subsidised price over buying it separately.
