Rega
RB3000 Ref
The Rega RB3000 is the British manufacturer's top-of-the-line tonearm, built using the low-mass, single-piece cast principles that define Rega's arm designs but refined with hand-selected bearings fitted to an interference fit with their paired spindles for minimal play. It is the standard-fit arm on Rega's flagship Planar 10 turntable and is also sold separately as a reference-grade upgrade for other Rega decks and compatible three-point-mount turntables.
