My personal quest is to save to world of bad audio, one thread at a time. -
You guys didn't know about americanradiohistory ?
Audio and High Fidelity there, too... lots of electronics and tape recording magazines,too, plus catalogs and radio and showbiz periodicals -- books, all kinds of dandy stuff. Incredible site.
They also have Vacuum Tube Valley there, too, but it is a little hard to find -
Oh -- also -- the PDFs are downloadable and they've been OCR'd and indexed, and they're searchable. That's the resource I have been using for my (umm... moribund) "Polk Audio ads" project.

Awesome, can't wait to go through the 80s issues and see all the gear I was drooling about as a kid that got me into this hobby.

I'm digging that site. As a long time subscriber it's cool to go back see how many I remember reading.

This first shipment was fantastic
But each shipment after was massively painful -
Returns were a pain.
I always hated getting tapes with a generic insert and no liner notes or lyrics!I disabled signatures. -
I had stacks of SR ,Audio and High Fidelity from the late early to late 80s when i worked in the audio bizz. Also had a few boxes for brochures from the late 70 through late 80s for various audio gear Not to mention drawers full of Chevrolet car brochures from mid 60 to mid 70. I would get at a service station in Longville MN that was a Chevy dealer near my grandparents cabin on Leech Lake. Gave or threw them all away IDIOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
