Rega Turns to Graphene to Improve Sound Quality

 

Haydale, (AIM: HAYD), the global technology solutions company, is pleased to
have supplied audio equipment manufacturer Rega Research Ltd ("Rega") with its
mechanically enhanced prepreg for improved sound quality on its latest
turntable.

 

Using Haydale's HDPlasÒ technology, the graphene-enhanced prepreg has been
applied into the manufacturing process for Rega's award-winning turntables.
The mechanically enhanced prepreg has been combined into the stressed skin
design of the plinth and bonded to the core material to increase the stiffness
of the part by 11% reducing resonance and improving sound quality.

 

Renowned for developing and manufacturing some of the most highly regarded
turntables, the technology Rega use is the same as developed for the
manufacture of jet aircraft wings that both require light weight and strength.
The addition of graphene continues to place high-tech materials at the
forefront of Rega's audio equipment development to achieve low mass and high
rigidity.

 

Commenting on this latest development, Rega Design Co-ordinator Colin Dilliway
said: "Every Rega product is designed to achieve the best musical performance
and sound reproduction possible. These graphene enhancements have increased
the stiffness of our product for improved sound quality. We look forward to
working with Haydale on further developments aimed at making our products even
better and manufacturing new ground-breaking products."

 

Haydale CEO Keith Broadbent added: "As we continue to work with market-leading
customers, I am delighted to see graphene once again being used in application
with significant performance improvements. Rega are well known for their use
of high-tech materials and the use of graphene in their latest turntable is a
ground-breaking product."
