-Rega’s now legendary head electronics engineer Terry Bateman spent 10 years researching the concept of a CD player using valves in the output amplifier. Valves have been widely used in musical instruments and recording amplification from the 1950s to the present day, therefore it made great sense to develop a valve-based CD player to match that of the signal chain found in such applications.
