Measuring Vibrations: Rega's founder and Turntable Guru wins a What Hi-fi?'s 2025 Outstanding Contribution Award
·
·
The announcement of Roy Gandy’s 2025 Outstanding Contribution Award from What Hi-Fi? arrives with a sense of inevitability. Vinyl culture has been reshaped by many trends, but the foundations still rest on a handful of people who treated audio as a craft rather than a market.
Gandy belongs to that group. His work has influenced how several generations discover music at home, and the recognition lands at a moment when listeners are paying closer attention to the origins of the products they live with.
Gandy built his first turntable as a teenager – eventually building Rega Research in 1973. The early years were small and disciplined; experiments with rigidity, low-mass structures, and clean mechanical paths. The Planar 3 emerged from this period and changed the expectations around affordable Hi Fi.
Before Rega, Gandy worked in roles that strengthened his instinct for practical engineering. He spent his early years repairing bicycles, building a motorcycle from spare parts, and taking on mechanical tasks that required close attention to tolerances and failure points. He held a day job while assembling Rega’s first turntables in the evenings, and his time in those environments gave him a clear understanding of how materials behave under stress and how simple structures can outperform more elaborate ones.
The 2025 award recognises this long arc; and comes soon after Gandy transferred his ownership to Rega’s employees, prioritised employee job security and preserving the brand’s unique culture.
TRC and Rega share a special relationship. In 2019, we hosted Roy Gandy at our Mahim store, where he set up a Rega P8 with Jude; and later spent time exploring the city with our team.
Earlier this year, TRC visited the Rega factory in the South East of England. Walking through the production floor and observing the assembly process added a layer of clarity to how the company works and why its products feel the way they do. You can sense the accumulated experience in the room, and it becomes obvious why Rega’s reputation holds up in a market defined by rapid shifts.

I’m a testament that miracles happen. When I turned 18, My grandfather encouraged me to buy a lottery ticket for fun but I wasn’t pleased with the way I kept on playing without winning. I was eager to learn more about how to win the lottery and when I searched the internet I found numerous articles saying how they won the lottery through his spells and I decided to give it a try by contacting Lord Meduza. I’d love to say that this man is such a sweet soul who got my back all through the process of making me a lottery spell to win the lottery. The numbers he gave me won me the LOTTO 6/49 Gold Ball of a whopping $48,000,000 Million Canadian Dollars. Right now, my family and I are blessed. Thank you LORD MEDUZA for making this win come true for me and my family. Anyone that needs his help can go to his website: lordmeduzatemple.com or Email: lordmeduzatemple@hotmail.com or Whats_App: +1 807 798 3042 to learn more about his works..

Hi, wishing good fortune to everyone who comes across this comment! I went bankrupt last year due to failed business ideas. I used to enjoy playing the lottery for fun but as my situation worsened financially, I sought help to win big this time and found a man called MEDUZA, who has assisted numerous individuals worldwide with their financial issues. This man prepared a powerful spell for me that enabled him to get the secrete lucky numbers for me, I played the game with the numbers and to my astonishment, I discovered that I had won $259 million Jackpot after 2 weeks just has he said; Today, I’m now free of debt and I own different investments globally. Without Meduza, I wouldn’t have made it through the tough times I experienced last year. Truly, MEDUZA is a divine presence among us.

I still can’t believe this is real, but I actually won the lottery jackpot! It feels like a dream come true. For years, I would occasionally play without expecting much, just hoping that one day luck would finally be on my side—and it finally happened when I came across a testimony on how Dr Benjamin the great spell caster had helped alot of people win, so I reached out to him, he told me what to do and I followed his instructions, after 48 hours he gave some numbers to play, I did played the numbers as instructed.
The moment I checked my numbers and realized they all matched, my heart started racing. I had to double-check multiple times because I couldn’t believe what I was seeing. Winning the Powerball jackpot of $107,000,000,00. This has completely changed my life. It’s given me financial freedom, peace of mind, and the opportunity to support my family and invest in my future. Here are his contact information.
