Thank you for leading me down this rabbit hole of looking up Wega, which was a German manufacturer of hifi equipment bought by Sony. They apparently made tapedecks for the Sony Elcaset format, which became an even deeper rabbit hole... TIL!
"Oooh, so that's what happened to aiwa."
Is THAT what happened to Aiwa? I had never made the connection.
I didn't even know Wega was in reference to a company they bought. I always thought it referred to their flatscreen trinitons and nothing else.
That thing struggled to keep geometry, but come on, it was a humongous widescreen CRT with stereo speakers that could replicate the Tunguska crater. You gotta love it.
