The hallmark JRDG musicality cannot be slotted into a simple category, be it solid state (SS), tube-like, or otherwise.  It brings together power, staging, imaging, and control, with an incredible extension devoid of hotspots and suck outs, subtlety and transparency, into a seamless musical whole, devoid of grain but filled with emotion.

This is why lovers of music of all traditions, and from all over the world, have embraced the sensuous refinement of the award winning JRDG sound.

Simply put, the REF150se is a breakthrough in stereo power amplification.  Replacing the REF150—which was one of the most respected modern stereo amplifiers—was a daunting task, but it has been accomplished.  The REF150se offers more power, greater dynamic thrust, a more vivid and resolved presentation, greater finesse, and quieter operation. Now with the KT-150 tubes elevating it to a new level. 

It is the new benchmark!!

The result of fusing the best in design, technology, engineering, materials and manufacturing has resulted in the line of Esoteric products.

As an early innovator in magnetic tape recording and data storage, the TEAC Corporation was founded in Japan in 1953.

Heinz Lichtenegger, one of Austria's leading distributors of high-end audio brands, founded PRO-JECT AUDIO SYSTEMS in early 1990. As an audiophile and music lover, Heinz 's interest in turntables and analog playback turned into a passion to create turntables, tonearms and analog accessories that were reasonably priced yet that were uncompromised both mechanically and sonically. This passion is what led him and his like-minded colleagues to launch a new business venture named PRO-JECT AUDIO SYSTEMS.

Rega’s philosophy is to make high quality products at sensible prices, as a means of reproducing music as faithfully as possible.

We are committed to the design and development of new and existing products, both in hi-fi and other areas, that will perpetuate Rega’s values of quality and value for money.

By 1983 the time had come for Rega to design and build its own tonearm and so the world famous RB300 (Rega Britain) was born. The high pressure die-cast silicon alloy tube alone took two years to develop alongside the UK's largest die-cast company. The work and our casting subsequently won us an "international casting award" from America for what is still considered today to be a technically impossible casting.
