The Planar 8 was inspired by the ultimate Rega turntable, the ‘Naiad’. We decided early on that instead of an evolution of the previous RP8, the new Planar 8 was to be developed and engineered to encapsulate the essence of ‘Naiad’ at an affordable price. Our aim was to deliver a level of performance far beyond what has been achieved at this price point before.
The Apollo CD player utilises Rega’s own custom chipset and software offering a truly unique level of performance for a CD player. Development of the analogue, digital and control domains ensured direct improvements of both analogue and digital outputs, making the Apollo a perfect partner for the Rega Brio amplifier.
