SETUP AND CONNECTIONS
1.
Only use the Rega supplied PS1 AC adaptor.
2.
Connect the power DIN lead (supplied) between the rear of the
Planar 6 and the 24 V AC input socket on the rear panel of the Neo.
3.
Plug in the Rega PS1 and switch the mains power on.
4.
To turn the Neo on, push the button marked 'power' located on
the front panel and the turntable platter will rotate at the selected
speed.
5.
When the power supply is switched on, if the Rega logo illuminates
red, 331/3 rpm is selected.
6.
If the Rega logo is illuminated green, 45 rpm is selected.
7.
To change between speeds, press the button marked '33/45' on the
front panel as required.
Note: To minimise the risk of hum picked up by the cartridge, the Neo
should be situated as far from the turntable as the interconnect cable
will allow.
CONNECTING TO THE AMPLIFIER
The tonearm external phono leads must be connected to a suitable
phono stage.
Connect as follows:
Red = right chanel
Black = left channel
Depending on the type of cartridge you have chosen, you will require
the appropriate moving magnet (MM) or moving coil (MC) stage. If your
amplifier does not have an integrated phono stage, you will require an
external stage (sold separately).
CARTRIDGE MOUNTING AND SETTING UP THE RB330 TONEARM
Firstly, ensure the cartridge fixings are orientated correctly according to
the cartridge makers specification. Use the cartridge alignment protractor
(supplied) to accurately set the position of the cartridge. Ensure that the
tracking force dial (A) and bias adjustment slider (B) are both set to zero.
Place the balance weight (C) on to the balance weight shaft. With the
stylus guard removed, position the cartridge above the lead-in groove of
an LP. Whilst supporting the headshell, carefully push the weight further
up the shaft until the stylus is floating just 1 mm clear of the record.
The recommended tracking force can now be applied using the tracking
force dial. Always use a force which corresponds to the upper limit of the
cartridge makers recommended range. Finally, push the bias adjustment
slider to the same number as the tracking force control.
