"The newly revised Planar 10 represents the pinnacle of Rega's high-tech and extremely well-thought-out minimalism."

"MF found the sound of the new P10 to be 'fast, tight, well-defined, tuneful, and exciting on the bottom,'adding that 'anyone who thinks a lightweight 'table can't produce deep, tuneful, and well-sculpted bass should listen to the P10.'

"...this turntable set new standards for me for its exceptionally low noise floor and, as a result, the quietness of its musical presentation. The music just emerged from a pitch-black background, fully defined spatially within a deep, wide, and tall soundstage, allowing me to hear into the music and focus on all sorts of lovely details and niceties."

"In case you haven’t figured it out by now, I love this turntable. It’s a snap to set up and is so well made that it should provide reliable performance for decades. With its use of cutting-edge materials, straightforward design principles, and unrelenting focus on minimizing the impact of vibration to extract maximal information out of record grooves, the Rega Planar 10 is easily one of the best turntables I have ever heard, regardless of price. Combined with the Apheta 3 moving-coil cartridge, the Planar 10 extracts incredible amounts of detail, while also providing spacious, stable, and well-defined imaging. Frequency response is extended with exceptional tonal neutrality. The presentation is characterized by lifelike low-end power, and overall definition, speed, transparency, and articulation. The bottom line? Yes, you can spend more money on a turntable, but, honestly, I can’t think of why you’d need to. I can’t imagine having a more satisfying and engaging experience than the one that the Planar 10 offers from LPs. It’s an outstandingly well-thought-out, well-engineered, and well-made product, and will last a lifetime making beautiful music. What more could one ask for? Unequivocally, my highest possible recommendation."

"For any serious, vinyl oriented audiophile searching for the kind of performance usually found at the BMW i8 level, but at an i3 price (approximately $5,495 without cartridge and $6,695 supplied with Rega’s Alpheta 3 MC cart), the P10 offers more than just great value. For a lot of folks, this might be as good as it gets."

- Dave McNair, Part-Time Audiophile, March 22, 2020

"Rather than indelibly stamping themselves on the music they play, Rega turntables have always been commendably smooth and self-effacing. The new Planar 10 carries on with this tradition but takes it to another level. The result is a superb sounding vinyl spinner, but one that doesn't fit the traditional mould of cosy, warm sounding record players that some analogue addicts covet so much. Whether you enjoy this is solely down to you then, a matter of taste. For me, I think it isn't for turntables to have character, that's for their owners – so I love it."

"Rega's new P10 is by far the company's most sophisticated, refined, quiet, and subtle-sounding turntable yet. It combines the immediacy, grip, and rhythm'n'pacing excitement Regas have always produced, with the subtlety and delicacy typically found on far more costly analog front ends. The same is true of the Apheta 3 cartridge. If there's a better $6695 plug'n'play turntable out there—or, for that matter, a better or at least competitive one for $10,000—I don't know what it is. I may try a few other more costly cartridges on the P10 before sending it back, but that's a different review."

"It manages to deliver a performance that is outstanding eve at the relatively lofty price point, and it does so while retaining the same joy and charm the company holds dear. The Planar 10 is a masterpiece and any owner will feel proud to have one of the company's finest achievements."

"I have not yet been able to stop playing old favourites on the Rega Planar 10 and don’t expect the urge to subside any time soon, this is a truly exceptional turntable with the ability to open up any recording and show you exactly what was going on at the time and place it was made."
