Introduction
Your Rega Radio has been designed as a high quality source, able
to reproduce a broadcast easily and effectively at a competitive price.
The Radio has been built to Rega's usual discriminating standards of
reliability and quality to ensure many years of musical enjoyment with
improved AM function.
A tuner's function is to oscillate along with the tiny electromagnetic
vibrations that are a radio signal. The ability of a tuner to oscillate at
a stable, predetermined frequency matching that of the signal - is
directly related to its quality.
In addition to meeting this requirement, the Radio allows fine tuning
between the normal incremental steps. To fully appreciate the quality
of the Rega Radio however, it's only necessary to switch on, sit back
and enjoy the music.
Use the AM/FM button to select between Wavebands.
If a programme is broadcast in mono, the Radio may be switched to
Mono mode. This can improve the audibility of certain programmes
by reducing cross channel 'mush'.
Installation
The Radio will work well on most surfaces, such as a shelf or table,
provided there is sufficient air around it to prevent overheating.
For maximum performance place unit as far away as possible from
fridges, cookers, fluorescent lights etc.
Never stack Hi-Fi equipment directly on top of one another.
In Use
