Illuminate Your Hi-Fi Experience with UberLight Flex
An LED task light for audiophiles - who would have thought? But we've used the UberLight Flex ourselves and can attest to its value and quality.
Recognising the vinyl record renaissance, Reliable Corporation leveraged its 17 plus years of producing task lighting to create this unique and thoughtful solution that every vinyl user will enjoy.
The UberLight 3200-TL is an ergonomic, contemporary design incorporating controls on the lamp head, powered by USB. It features a 270° rotational head, 26.5" sturdy & flexible silicone gooseneck, 2.5" clamp mount with soft feel contact pads to avoid surface damage. It delivers glare-free lighting with three colour temperatures, each with three brightness settings. The manufacturer also claims a whopping 60,000 hours of usage.
Gareth Weller, Director of HiFi Collective, the Australian distributor for Reliable and its UberLight, told StereoNET:
The bane of all records is dust, and while you may think that you've removed all of the dust on your vinyl with your record brush, the truth is you cannot remove what you can't see. With the UberLight Flex, the record surface is brightened, and the dust that has been left over is easily visible. You may spend a bit more time cleaning, but the clearer sound will result in a far more enjoyable listening experience.
For the avid record collector, the information in the dead wax is often vital to establish the heritage of that record's mastering and pressing. Using the UberLight Flex, the information in the dead wax is highlighted by the LED panel. The UberLight Flex is also beneficial in finding the lead-in groove on the record, making those troubling "skating" motions of your stylus a thing of the past. If you need to change your cartridge, the UberLight Flex will provide the light necessary to complete the task with more care.
The UberLight Flex is available now for $149 RRP and comes in Black or White.

applause awards
Each time StereoNET reviews a product, it is considered for an Applause Award. Winning one marks it out as a design of great quality and distinction – a special product in its class, on the grounds of either performance, value for money, or usually both.
Applause Awards are personally issued by StereoNET’s global Editor-in-Chief, David Price – who has over three decades of experience reviewing hi-fi products at the highest level – after consulting with our senior editorial team. They are not automatically given with all reviews, nor can manufacturers purchase them.
The StereoNET editorial team includes some of the world’s most experienced and respected hi-fi journalists with a vast wealth of knowledge. Some have edited popular English language hi-fi magazines, and others have been senior contributors to famous audio journals stretching back to the late 1970s. And we also employ professional IT and home theatre specialists who work at the cutting edge of today’s technology.
We believe that no other online hi-fi and home cinema resource offers such expert knowledge, so when StereoNET gives an Applause Award, it is a trustworthy hallmark of quality. Receiving such an award is the prerequisite to becoming eligible for our annual Product of the Year awards, awarded only to the finest designs in their respective categories. Buyers of hi-fi, home cinema, and headphones can be sure that a StereoNET Applause Award winner is worthy of your most serious attention.
