Reviews

A component-by-component guide to planning and building a state-of-the-art home sound system. The approach is fairly standard: escorting the reader through each stage, discussing what to choose and what not to (e.g., why a belt-driven turntable is preferable to direct drive), home maintenance, etc. But while nontechnical, the book presents considerable detail, more than in other good recent works on the topic, such as Ivan Berger and Hans Fantel's The New Sound of Stereo ( LJ 5/15/86). A book for the dedicated, rather than the casual, audiophile. Donald J. Marion, Univ. of Minnesota Inst. of Technology Libs., Minneapolis
