AnalogPlanet Visits Rega Research (Part 3) 

it's good to see a busy english factory with busy english workers.

Now I love rega even more , great tour

I sold Rega turntables in the late 70's early 80's in Toronto and their breakthrough tonearm, the RB250 changed the game. Rather than being S shaped, it was a straight one piece to head shell metallic tubular arm. Customer interest increased a fair bit since Rega was offering a better tonearm in the same price point as other manufacturers. Over the years the table and arm have evolved and they make cartridges and other audio equipment that is competitive for design, build quality and sound. I've always been impressed with Rega. Great company tour Michael.

Gob smacked! What else can I say. I've used a 1980's Rega RB-300 I fitted to a Micro Seiki PPL unit and an Ariston. Fantastic tour! Much respect for craft!

Thank you for these videos. I own a Rega Planar 3 turntable with Neo PSU, Rega Brio amplifier and Rega Apollo CD player. Great to see how these wonderful products are put together. The care they take and human touch are apparent to anyone who has used their products.

This world just wouldn't be the same, without Rega arms and tables..

Very impressive operation

You did a great job on these Videos, many thanks! I never was so close to a TT manufacturer.

I recently tested a few mats as replacements for the stock felt option on my Rega P3. I tried cheap rubber, cork (Project), and the 'Ringmat' from Ringmat Developments. The Ringmat was a clear winner. Who knew it would make this much difference!? The bass was much, much tighter, louder and audibly deeper too. It works on the basis of minimal contact between record and mat. I was not surprised to learn that the Music Hall mat did well in your published test of 8 mats, given the similar principle of design. Thanks for the tour!

I love when you do these...

Amazing to watch hand made workmanship No robots

A lot of hard tidious work and know how goes into making Rega products. And in my own opinion, Rega kit is worth the Money. I'm proud of all the employees that work for Rega, and yes, I do own Rega P3 and Brio. Thank you from the USA. Ps.. I just purchased the Neo power supply, love it :)

Great Vid, Thanks

Rega is the working mans Hifi great stuff

I just got a P1 turntable, and am quite surprised to see the person who made its motor!

I love rega equipment brilliant

"Bluetooth". That hurt my soul.

Awesome videos , makes you appriciate more the LP , now i want to buy one even more. oh ... that lady with the crmp, showed you a little to much ? part was cut lol

Blimey, theyre so busy, fascinating see just how many stages there are in what, afterall, always appears to be a relatively simple mechanical/ electrical object; looking forward to the next part, how many parts in total do you think youll have Michael?

The Rega Planar 8 is on my radar. Current price is around $4000 with cartridge.

I just bought one of those mini phono stages and I love the built in ADC, but wHY WOULD YOU PUT THE GROUND ON THE OPPOSITE SIDE OF THE BOX FROM THE RCA INPUT!?!?!?!?!?!?!?

How many turntable units are made per year - total units all models combined? It appears to be way more than I’d have thought .....

These videos are both heartwarming and depressing. Its heartwarming that there are companies like Rega, with integrity and talented engineers, dedicated to designing and manufacturing excellent quality audio products at affordable prices. The depressing part is that 99% of the people looking to buy a turntable have never heard of Rega and their ilk and will waste their money on a Crossley Cruiser :(

Рега молодцы. Хочу начать с первого планара.

Why do I see a lot of "Fairy" dish detergent soap bottles on so many of the tables?

Complex operation

tienen un diego 10 congratuletion

22:27 Just tilt the turntable as needed! 8D

The noise level. Gosh

RIMEMBER disco lp usado a reciclage y vamos por otro nuevo ya que la calidad baja

al reproducir el disco escucho que hablan con migo me van a traer otro disco si siguen es el narco

Yes! No anti skate. AS put more pressure on the bearings. And limits the arm to move freely. The amount of force on the groove is very limited without AS. You want the grooves to guide the stylus. Au natural is best. AS is just a marketing gimmick. Ask the ppz of VPI or the japanese audiophiles. Threy tell you this too.

fantacy

i like that dirty talk she has on at 13.20

3:30 Michael, you silver tongued devil you.

Why would they crimp the headshell wire to the arm wire? surely the better way is just to crimp the cartridge connector straight to the arm wire, can't see the benefit of doing it the way they're doing it the impedance must be greater, anybody know why they've done it this way.

la virgen de guadalupe me habla

You're mike is terrible I can hardly hear you from all the background noise.

good old uk tea in the background and emigrant cheap labour whit an english supervisor :)
