FAQ

Do I need an external phono pre-amp?Yes the Planar 1 outputs standard phono-level signal, so youll need an amplifier or separate phono stage with MM support to hear music.Can I upgrade the cartridge later?Yes you can upgrade the cartridge/stylus (e.g. to an elliptical stylus) once you want finer detail or heavier use.

Care & Maintenance

Keep dust cover closed when not in use. Clean the stylus gently with a stylus brush before and after each play to prolong cartridge life. Place the turntable on a stable, vibration-free surface for best results. Avoid heavy shocks or tilting while the platter is spinning.
