Rega Planar 1 Plus + Marantz PM6007 + Dali Kupid – Entry Hi-Fi, Done Properly

Three of the most recommended names at the entry of hi-fi in one order: the Rega Planar 1 Plus turntable, hand-built in England with its phono stage already inside, the Marantz PM6007 integrated amplifier with 45 W per channel, an AK4490 DAC and its own MM phono input, and the Dali Kupid – Danish compact speakers in finishes that match the deck. Records, TV over optical and streaming from a phone all run through the same two knobs.

In This Setup

• Rega Planar 1 Plus – belt-drive turntable with built-in MM phono stage, hand-assembled RB110 tonearm, pre-installed Rega Carbon MM cartridge, phenolic resin platter and low-noise 24 V synchronous motor. Matte Black, Matte White or Walnut.
• Marantz PM6007 – slimline integrated amplifier, 2 × 45 W into 8 Ω (2 × 60 W into 4 Ω), AK4490 DAC with two optical and one coaxial input, MM phono stage, five RCA inputs, subwoofer output, headphone jack and Source Direct bypass. Black.
• Dali Kupid (pair) – compact 2-way speakers with 4½" paper / wood-fibre mid/bass driver, 26 mm soft dome tweeter and dual-flare bass reflex port, 4 Ω, 63 Hz – 25 kHz; wall brackets and rubber feet included. Black Ash, Caramel White or Walnut.

Why This Combination

• Two phono stages, your choice: run the Planar 1 Plus into a line input, or switch its stage off and use the Marantz MM input – either way the deck plugs straight in.
• Amplifier-friendly speakers: the Kupid's consistent 4 Ω load is exactly what the PM6007's 60 W into 4 Ω is rated for, in a small or medium room.
• Finishes that match: Matte Black with Black Ash, Matte White with Caramel White, or Walnut with Walnut – the set is priced the same whichever you choose.

Set price includes all three products; speaker cable and stands are sold separately.
