SO LONG, STEREO REVIEW

Speaking of nostalgia, the October/november issue marked the official conclusion of our Stereo Review 60th anniversary celebration. Many subscribers loved reading about the old days of Julian Hirsch and company— our reprint of the Nakamichi Dragon cassette deck in particular generated lots of reader response. Others, however, chimed in to encourage us to restore the magazine’s print space to other, more contemporary concerns. Starting with this issue, that’s exactly what we plan to do. In the meantime, a former writer from Video magazine, the title that

Stereo Review merged with in 1999 to form Sound & Vision, recently shipped me a big box of vintage issues of that publication. If the prospect of reading reprints of articles covering the early days of home video (VHS and S-VHS VCRS, laserdiscs and laserdisc players, etc.) holds appeal, or if there’s anything else you’ve got on your mind, drop me a line at editor@ soundandvision.com.— AG
