FAQ

Do I need a separate phono pre-amp?
Yes — Planar 2 outputs a standard phono-level signal, so you’ll need an amplifier or phono stage with MM support.
Can I upgrade the cartridge later?
Yes — many users upgrade from the standard Carbon MM cartridge to a higher-end cartridge (e.g. Nd3 MM) for refined detail and improved dynamics.

Care & Maintenance

Always keep the dust cover on when not in use. Clean the stylus gently with a stylus brush before and after playback to prolong cartridge life. Place the turntable on a stable, vibration-free surface — avoid moving or tilting while the platter is spinning.
