Rega Strobe Kit – Hand-held Strobe Unit & Stroboscopic Disc

Description

Rega Strobe Kit.

This accessory is designed to evaluate the speed of any
turntable. The hand-held strobe unit generates a 100 Hz pulsed light source for
use with the supplied 180-line stroboscopic disc.

Designed as the perfect partner for the speed
adjustable Rega Neo PSU. 

Simply place the supplied stroboscopic disc directly on
the turntable mat. With the player running at 33 1/3 RPM hold
the strobe LED directly above the lines to evaluate the speed of the turntable.

How to use the Rega strobe:

• With your turntable rotating and the speed set at 331/3
RPM, place the stroboscopic disc over the

record spindle directly onto your turntable mat.

• Hold the strobe approximately 2-3 centimeters from the lines on the disc.

• If the lines freeze and remain stable, this indicates the turntable is
running at the correct speed.

• If the lines on the disc are moving slowly clockwise, this indicates the
turntable is running fast.

• If the lines on the disc are moving slowly anticlockwise, this indicates the
turntable is running slow.

• TIP: To ensure an accurate reading it is recommended to hold a reference
point such as a pencil

tip near the lines during rotation to easily identify if the lines
are stable or rotating.

• If your turntable or power supply are adjustable, you can correct the speed
of the turntable until the

lines are stable.

• The supplied 9 V battery is pre-installed. 

• Advice for non-adjustable Rega turntables: If
your turntable is not adjustable, first try a new drive

belt. Drive belts can stretch over time causing minor speed variations. Notable
speed variations are

more likely to be mechanical issues. Check the bearing oil in the central hub.
If your Rega turntable

uses a steel ball bearing, make sure this is present inside the brass bearing
housing (not used on RP8

or RP10). Please contact your Rega dealer or distributor via www.rega.co.uk if
you require service or

parts.
