Rega P9 Turntable and Tonearm Package Rega P9 Turntable with The RB1000 tonearm Dynavector XX2 Cartridge Not included Condition: Excellent condition Description: I'm selling my beloved Rega P9 turntable, which has been a fantastic addition to my audio setup. It's in excellent condition and has always been well taken care of. This turntable has given me lots of joy with its incredible sound quality and precise engineering. Top-Notch Engineering: It's built with high-quality materials and craftsmanship, providing a stable and accurate platform for your records. RB1000 Tonearm: The RB1000
A$2,900 is ambitious versus the recent Aussie used market: it sits well above the 75th percentile of A$1,598, so this is priced at a clear premium rather than a bargain. Against a median of A$929 and a 25th percentile of A$648, the gap is large enough that I’d only lean in if this is a very complete, unusually fresh package.
The upside is that this is one of Rega’s most respected decks: the P9 is known for very low-noise, highly rhythmic playback, and it’s the kind of table that rewards a serious cartridge and careful setup. If the arm, lid, and original accessories are all present, and the condition is genuinely excellent, it can still make sense for a buyer who wants a top-tier Rega rather than a project piece.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Rega Research, founded in 1973 in Essex, England, by Roy Gandy and Tony Relph, emerged from Gandy's lifelong passion for vinyl playback. A Ford engineer and music enthusiast, Gandy built his first turntable, the Planet, in his spare time, blending the founders' surnames to create the Rega name. From humble beginnings in a derelict mill, the company quickly gained traction with early models like the Planar 2 and Planar 3, establishing its heritage as a British hi-fi pioneer dedicated to precision engineering and hand-assembly.
Rega specializes in turntables and tonearms, its cornerstone products, but has expanded into a full ecosystem including cartridges, integrated amplifiers like the Elicit and Brio, phono stages such as the Fono, and speakers like the Ela series. While early efforts included loudspeakers and electronics from the 1980s onward, the brand prioritizes vinyl-centric components over headphones, DACs, or cables, all designed in-house for musical fidelity using specialist materials and tight tolerances.
Rega holds a revered position in the high-end hi-fi market as a niche boutique icon, prized by audiophiles for affordable, lifetime-quality performance that emphasizes music over gimmicks. Globally exported to over 50 countries from its Essex facility employing more than 150, it remains a symbol of British ingenuity, with turntables like the Planar series securing enduring loyalty among vinyl revivalists.
