1958 is the start of something great. After his exam from the Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm, Lars Lundahl started working for AGA, a big gas corporation who at that time had ambitions to start manufacturing electronic products, both for the professional and consumer markets. During his years at AGA Lars worked with magnetic amplifiers for control applications, and was introduced to the newly invented transistor. He also discovered that it was hard or almost impossible to find good transformers, so he decided to start his own company to manufacture transformers.
