WEGA was a German audio and video manufacturer that manufactured some of Germany's earliest radio receivers.[2]
History
WEGA, pronounced "Vega", was founded as Wuerttembergische Radio-Gesellschaft mbh in Stuttgart, Germany, in 1923. In 1975, it was acquired by Sony Corporation.[2] They were then known throughout Europe for stylish and high-quality stereo equipment, designed by Verner Panton[3] and Hartmut Esslinger.[4] Sony continued to use the WEGA brand until 2005, when liquid-crystal displays superseded the company's Trinitron aperture grille-based CRT models.[5]
