Thank you for purchasing this Rega product.

Please follow this quick set up guide to ensure optimum performance and perfect operation. Failure to do so may invalidate your warranty. For more

information on this product, please visit www.rega.co.uk.

Unpacking and Setting Up the Planar 6 and Neo Power Supply

• Always keep the turntable at.

• Follow the unpacking guide printed inside the front of the box.

• Save the packaging in case you need to transport your turntable in the future.

• Place the turntable on a rigid level surface.

• Ensure the drive belt is in place and remove the transport hub card from beneath the sub platter.

• Carefully place the glass platter on the hub and t the turntable mat.

Speed Adjustment (factory set - only adjust if necessary)

The speed control functions are sited on the back panel of the Neo.

Speed programme switch – This enables the set speed mode.

Programme mode LED – This indicates the two modes of operation: Factory

default mode and speed adjustment mode.

Speed adjustment – This encoder is used to adjust the speed. The step size

of the speed control is 0.01 RPM.

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, 33⁄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 Amplier

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 amplier 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 xings are orientated correctly according to the cartridge makers specication. 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 oating just 1mm 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.

Adjusting the Speed

Note: We recommend the Rega strobe kit to accurately measure the speed during adjustment (sold separately).

Note: The speed is adjusted whilst running at 33⁄RPM and any adjustments made at 33⁄RPM will be automatically be applied to 45 RPM.

1. Select 33⁄RPM.

2. Press the ‘speed programme’ switch on the rear panel once to put the unit into setup mode - The ‘programme mode’ LED will now be permanently

illuminated red.

3. Adjust the speed via the ‘speed adjustment’ control using the supplied 1.7 mm allen key. Turning clockwise will increase the speed and turning counter

clockwise will decrease the speed. The step size is 0.01 RPM. Only make small adjustments of up to ve ‘steps’ at a time to ensure accurate adjustment.

Check the speed after each adjustment to achieve the best accuracy.

4. When the speed has been correctly set, press the ‘speed programme switch’ once to put the unit back into ‘run mode’. The ‘programme mode’ LED will

now go out and ash approximately every ten seconds indicating the speed has been changed from the factory setting. Your turntable is now set and

ready to use.

Returning the Neo to Factory Settings

This process is recommended when tting a new drive belt to your turntable or after a service to help optimise the range of adjustment available to you.

1. Select 33⁄RPM.

2. Press and hold down the ‘speed programme’ switch until the ‘programme mode’ LED ashes every few seconds. Keep the button pressed until a solid

LED is illuminated.

3. Whilst illuminated, press the ‘speed programme’ switch button once again to fully factory reset and return to ‘run mode’.

Note: We recommend changing Rega drive belts every ve years to guarantee optimum performance. Using the Neo with old worn belts may result in lower

performance and variation in speed stability.

Use of Mobile Phone Apps to Check and Adjust the Speed

Rega, along with a London mastering studio, have used the iPhone ‘RPM’ app (available on the App Store) developed by Philip Broder to check and adjust

the speed of a turntable using the Neo, with positive results. We have veried the basic accuracy of the ‘RPM’ app using Rega’s in-house speed measuring

equipment, but as this is a third-party app we cannot guarantee the readings because of uncertainties, which could be caused by the age, condition, and

operating system of the phone the app is installed on. If you are in any doubt, you should check the calibration of the ‘RPM’ app using a suitable reference.

Rega Strobe and Stroboscopic Disc (sold separately)

The best way to adjust the speed of your Planar 6 is to use the Rega Stobe kit. A stroboscopic disc is an optical instrument used to measure the speed of the

turntable by freezing the bars on the disc. The bars are illuminated by an accurate quartz locked LED pulsing at 100 Hz.

Using the Strobe Kit

Simply place the strobe disc on the turntable platter. Switch on the 100 Hz LED and hold it approximately 2 cm above the rotating strobe. If the bars do not

appear to move and are stationary, the speed is 33⁄ RPM. If they move clockwise, the turntable is running fast, and conversely, if they move anti-clockwise,

the turntable is running slow.

If over one minute the bars appear to move by one bar to the left or one bar to the right, the speed is 0.016% fast or slow respectively. Using the speed control

on the Neo, it is possible to achieve +/- 0.05% or +/- 1.3 RPM.

Note: If over one minute the bars appear to move by two bars to the left or by two bars to the right, the speed is 0.01 RPM fast or slow respectively. Using the

speed control on the Neo, it is possible to achieve +/- 0.01 RPM, which is one step of the speed adjustment.

Warning: Because of the nature of the stroboscopic eect of the disc and the LED light, we strongly recommend anyone with photo-induced epilepsy not to

use this device. Although this condition is very rare, we must make the user aware of this condition. Ask your dealer for assistance if required.
