Archived Scans of UK HiFi and other Magazines - a great resource here
Looking for that article in the January 1988 edition of Hifi Choice?
Find it here…
this is great rabbit hole to get lost in.

If you go to Websites homepage https://www.worldradiohistory.com/index.htm
You can access archived magazine and journal scans from around the world - as far back as the 1920’s!
Very very cool.

I have looked at that site in the past but only where someone has directed you to a link about a particular piece of kit. I was not aware that it was a vast library!

This is such an amazing site you have found Gary, it deserves to be made a permanent resource.
Well done!

For some unaccountable reason, I misread the source as being from 'Tannoyista'.
If you are willing, I'll put a copy into the Library where it will be permanent. You will of course be acknowledged for the contribution.

Literally tripped across it by accident when looking for an old Andrew Everard review of my Meridian 557 power amp.
Noticed the web address was really long (I'm geeky that way) and deleted it back to UK magazines out of curiosity, not expecting anything as normally these things dont work.
But it did - a happy accident.
LOVE all the old Hifi adverts from way back when, really takes me back.
Posted it a great resource, be cool if it was linked for everyone.
So go for it, think a lot of folks would enjoy it.
.. and I've been called much worse on here
So no worries Barry.
