New Book Traces Rega’s Turntable-Making History

The Sound Organisation has announced A Vibration Measuring Machine, a new book that traces the 43-year history of U.K.-based turntable maker Rega.

Five years in the making, the 300-page book was written by veteran audiophile and journalist Paul Messenger under the direction of Rega co-founder Roy Gandy. Graphics and illustration were handled by Bill Philpot, a veteran of the London advertising industry and creator of the original Rega logo, which remains relatively unchanged.

The work is described as a compilation of research, personal comments, and photographs related to the company that today builds 2,000 turntables a month.

Gandy “reveals all” in the three-part book, explaining the design philosophy and engineering behind the company’s innovative turntables.

Part one opens with an in-depth history of the company from the birth of its founder to present day, detailing key events and products introduced along the way. Part two presents Gandy’s detailed thesis on turntable engineering, while Part three focuses on important figures in the company’s history describing in their own words their personal tales and commitment to Rega ideals.
