Radiotehnika RRR was considered one of the best musical equipment manufacturing plants in the USSR. It was located in the city of Riga in the Latvian SSR, but its roots predate the USSR. From the Radiotehnika website:
“VEF Radiotehnika RRR” was founded in 1927 in Riga, Latvia and had radio/audio production as a main activity. The company was given its present name Radiotehnika RRR (Rīgas radiorūpnīca – Riga Radio Factory) in 1941 joining two private companies: a joint stock company “Foto-radio centrāle A. Leibovic” established on 28 December 1927 and a radio production company “A. Apsītis un F. Žukovskis” established in 1934.
This plant produced both a vinyl record player and speakers.
The Radiotehnika logo as used in the 1980s is based on Kabel Black, in Latin letters. Eurostile Extended was used in the design of the 101 series, featuring a Cyrillic version for the Russian-language labels. The 101 series included an radio tuner (T-101), a vinyl record player (ЭП-101), an audio cassette player (М-201), and a 20-watt power amplifier (У-101).
