Preowned Rega Planet // CD Player & Manual
Elegant. Simple. Solid. Called "one of the biggest bargains in hi-fi" by Stereophile in 1997, the Rega Planar CD player is one of the few fresh takes on CD player design, ever. RESTORATIONS Full 30-point service check Replaced laser and calibrated playback Cleaned controls, switches, and chassis SPECS Type Single-chassis top-load CD player, S/PDIF digital output, and single-ended analog outputs Maximum output (0dBFS signal) 2V RMS Measured output impedance 930 ohms (unbalanced) Dimensions 17.2"W x 3.5"H x 10.5"D Weight 8 lbs. LINER NOTES Rega has more rational reasons for avoiding drawers. As they point out, a complex motorized tray is subject to wear and tear and is thus an area of potential unreliability. Also, a repair person can quickly access the laser diode assembly of a top-loading player without taking the machine apart.
