Hi-Fi+ September 2024

 

  hi-fi+ is a magazine that is serious about hi-fi. Our articles are intended to help you get the best from your system, rather than simply telling you to buy another one. Our reviews only cover product that we think is worthwhile. You can read more about that by looking at our reviews policy, but lets just say that our attitude to equipment is rather different, and we hope, much more informative. We haven't forgotten that hi-fi is supposed to be fun!

 

 

Editorial: The Art Of Loudspeaker Design And Engineering
Loudspeakers are the most mature component of an audio system.
Editorial By Alan Sircom
Assembling a group of loudspeakers for review has never been too much of a problem. There's a lot of them and there are always more to be had. But more is not necessarily better. The loudspeaker maker's art is a diverse one, involving a skill set that stretches from cramming off-the-shelf drivers and a simple crossover in a wooden cabinet to extensive research by a group of PhDs into every aspect of transducer technology. Trends in audio may come and go. Formats rise, fall... and sometimes rise again. We've had hollow-state, solid-state, amps on chips, low power, high-power, wide bandwidth and all kinds of front-ends and amplifiers. And, unless you listen on headphones... you are always going to need loudspeakers.
