Topic Reading-Vol.551-10/14/2013

Dear MEL School’s Topic Readers,
The death of the home stereo system.
What matters isn’t quality but convenience when it comes to how people enjoy recorded audio or music. Once fashionable and admired hi-fi audio systems that consisted of record, tape or CD player, FM tuner, amplifier, and speaker don’t seem to attract anyone’s attention or interest nowadays save only a few when all kinds of music you own or just listen to can be enjoyed anywhere, anytime with any portable device.
However, this isn’t new. If you look at the history of recorded auido and music, convenience has always been the driving factor for audio entertainment market.
Enjoy reading and learning the history of audio recording technologies, equipment and styles.
