The Rega RP3 is a highly regarded turntable that builds on the legacy of the classic P3 design, which dates back to 1978. The RP3 was redesigned with enhancements in key areas such as the main bearing, tonearm, and plinth while maintaining a price point aimed at providing excellent value. It features the new RB303 tonearm, which offers improved performance, including a more secure mount for cartridges thanks to its three-screw arrangement. The turntable sports a lightweight and stiff plinth designed to minimize resonance and enhance sound quality. A 24-volt low-noise motor, paired with an optional external power supply (TT-PSU), allows for precise speed adjustments and lower noise during playback. The RP3 is also compatible with various cartridges, enhancing its versatility. Its design philosophy emphasizes low mass and structural rigidity, contributing to better sonic performance and an expansive soundstage. Specifications include dimensions of approximately 447 x 117 x 360 mm and a weight of around 5.5 kg. The RP3 is often recommended for those entering the vinyl scene as well as audiophiles looking for a quality playback option without breaking the bank.
