Easily by far and away the best part of the website. Too bad it was left to languish after all the great submissions from JBL, both current and former, as well as alot of generous forum members. It is a real hassle to keep up with though, especially all by one's self.


I have looked all over the Internet and asked at B&N for a book about vintage stereo and all I can find is tube and very old stuff. I would like to see a book that covers 1945 through 1990. Including Crown, marantz, Phase Linear, JBL and Klipsch etc all in one book.

I have found websites for:
Phase Linear: http://www.phaselinearhistory.stereomanuals.com/
Crown: No
Marantz: No
Klipsch No.

It is a lost art that someone could write a book on and I know there are people here that could do it if they could get past the bureaucracy of the publishers.

Also Old Colony Sound Labs has some interesting books.
