Enjoy the Music.com celebrates our 14th annual gift ideas to give your audiophile!

The Complete Guide to High-End Audio
Fifth Edition By Robert Harley

  This book is a great reference for the audiophile. Whether you are trying to trying to allocate your funds between the components of your system, trying to make sense of audio reviews, setting up a music server or even building a dedicated listening room from scratch, Bob Harley has excellent advice for you. Bob is the editor of TAS (The Absolute Sound) and he knows his stuff. You can pick this book up for $15 as eBook, or around $30 in paperback at Amazon.

The Absolute Sound's
Illustrated History of High-End Audio Volume One Loudspeakers
Plus Volume Two Electronics

The  Absolute Sound's limited edition large coffee table picture books are to die for! With their Volume One: Loudspeakers already in print, Volume Two Electronics celebrates a wide variety of both solid-state and vacuum tube gear. The pictures are gorgeous! The history is complete and very fascinating. The stories are great too! The 320-page book for Volume One: Loudspeakers is packed with fascinating details, including many never-before-revealed stories and photos. In Volume Two: Electronics we expect excellence as only The Absolute Sound can deliver.

Any tweaking audiophile would love to read these books. Harry Pearson said the series "is a celebration of the individuals who, often armed with nothing more than a brilliant idea and a dream, created an entire industry that brought so much joy to so many music lovers." The books are $129.95 plus $15 shipping each and worth every penny due to the quality and large size. There is no doubt both books make the perfect holiday gift. Enjoy the Music.com reviewer Roger Skoff suggests you get both books right now at TAS, though Vol 1 might be a challenge.
