The RB220 tonearm offers amazing performance and is one of Rega's best-selling tonearms.

The RB220 is an evolution of the famous RB250 that came standard on early Planar 2 and P2 turntables. It uses our patent pending ultra-lightweight, high-quality polymer bearings with selected high-quality vertical and horizontal bearings.

The tonearm uses a die-cast tube and the three-point attachment technique based on the mounting system. This system reduces the load on the plinth and tonearm and provides greater stability through the arm.

All of this means more music for you as a listener.
