P5

Born from the P25, the P5 is much closer in design and performance to the P7 than the P3. It shares the RB700 tone arm used on the P7 and has a similar look. It uses the same glass platter as the P3 though and the unit has an optional off board power supply. Speed change is still manual.

The P5 is a turntable born from the legacy of the P25. The P5 celebrates over 30 years of Rega precision crafting specialist hi-fi in Britain. And subsequently combines everything that Rega stands for, which is simply giving you the best product in terms of quality and style at the best possible price!

The P5 utilises ideas and engineering techniques used on our more expensive turntables - the aluminium surround, its complex CNC machined skeletal low mass micro-fibre plinth. Not to mention the new RB700 tone arm found on the P7.

The glass platter of the P5 is hand crafted from floated plate glass 15mm in thickness. This makes for a superb platter material which provides stability and assists in the isolation of record information against other sounds (i.e. knocking or vibrations) and also provides excellent speed stability, thus providing increased sonic enjoyment.
