Setup and connections (make all connections before powering up)
Connect the supplied mains power lead to the socket marked 'Power In' on the rear of the NAIA PSU.
Connect the XLR interconnect from the rear of the turntable to the socket marked 'Output' on the rear of the NAIA PSU. To minimise the risk of hum
pick up by the cartridge, the power supply 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. 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).
Connect as follows: Red = Right channel / Black = Left channel
Push the power button on the front panel to turn the NAIA PSU on. When the power supply is switched on, the Rega logo will illuminate RED.
Press the 331/3 rpm button to activate 331/3 rpm or 45 rpm to activate 45 rpm from the front panel.
Cartridge mounting and setting up the RB-TITANIUM 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.
Note: When using any Rega cartridge featuring a three-point mounting system, overhang is automatically set.
With the cartridge correctly mounted and with the stylus guard removed, ensure that the tracking force dial (A) and bias adjustment (B) are set to
zero. Adjust the balance weight (C) until the arm is "floating" with the stylus approximately 1mm clear of the record.
Note: It is normal for the arm to swing back towards the arm clip position even with the bias set at zero. Therefore, it is advisable to gently hold the
arm bearing carrier (just below the tracking dial) thus preventing horizontal movement during the balancing procedure.
Once the arm is balanced, rotate the tracking force adjustment dial to the required tracking force. Numbers '0' to '3' are marked on the dial. If in
doubt, it is advisable to use a tracking force that corresponds with the upper limits of the cartridge manufacturer's range.
Set the bias adjustment slider to the same figure as the cartridge tracking force pressure quoted by your cartridge manufacturer.
Note: This is not critical and a figure between 1.0 & 1.5 will normally be suitable for moving magnet cartridges and 1.5 & 2.0 for most moving coil
cartridges.
Simply push the bias adjustment slider into the required setting, using the dotted line as your reference (see next page).
Your arm is now balanced, setup and ready to use. If you have any doubts regarding installation or setup, please contact your official Rega dealer who
will be able to carry out the work for you. Thank you for purchasing this Rega product and we wish you many hours of musical enjoyment.
