Sonic Similarity Analysis
Both are literally the same model evolved over time. The modern Planar 3 maintains Roy Gandy's original rigid-plinth philosophy while incorporating incremental refinements to motor, bearing, and tonearm. Both deliver fast, rhythmic sound with punchy bass and excellent pace, offering exceptional performance-per-dollar through elegant British minimalism.
