Now on Newsstands: Stereophile, Vol.32 No.10

The October 2009 issue of Stereophile is now on newsstands. I hope you will enjoy reading this issue as much as we enjoyed putting it together. It was a lot of work, but it was also incredibly satisfying. The front cover is, in my opinion, our best and boldest of the year, which is appropriate because this issue not only includes our popular "Recommended Components" list but also pays tribute to Stereophile's founder, J. Gordon Holt, who passed away in">http://stereophile.com/news/j_gordon_holt/">in July. It is indeed a special issue.

The November 2009 issue of Stereophile is now on newsstands. On the cover, you’ll see a close-up of the Aerial Acoustics Model 20T V2 loudspeaker, which John Atkinson praised for its silky treble and weighty, well-defined bass. An interview with Aerial’s designer, Michael Kelly, appears herehttp://www.stereophile.com/interviews/467/index.html">here;, while Michael Fremer’s review of the original 20T can be found herehttp://www.stereophile.com/floorloudspeakers/404aerial/index.html">here…;.

Now on Newsstands: Stereophile, Vol.32 No.12

The December 2009 issue of Stereophile is now on newsstands. Our final issue of 2009 includes our annual “Products">http://www.stereophile.com/features/1208poty/index9.html">Products of the Year” feature. People love this feature. We’re already receiving fun complaints from manufacturers whose products are not pictured in the article, complaints from readers because we only vote on products we’ve actually listened to, complaints from angry moms because we didn’t pick their children to play one of the lead roles in “A Christmas Carol.”

The June 2009 issue of Stereophile is now on newsstands. At first, I was against the green border and font for the front cover, favoring a">http://blog.stereophile.com/stephenmejias/in_shades_of_orange/">a red and orange motif instead, but I now think the green treatment looks excellent. It is appropriate for spring, and the Klipsch Palladium P-39F loudspeaker seems to leap right from the page. Like a (really freaking) gigantic squirrel leaping from the branch of a blossoming tree.

Now on Newsstands: Stereophile, Vol.32 No.8

The August 2009 issue of Stereophile is now on newsstands. See that spiffy-looking integrated amplifier/USB DAC thingamajig on the cover? That's the Peachtree Nova. When I was at Stereo">http://blog.stereophile.com/stephenmejias/david_solomon_and_the_peachtr… Exchange a couple of months ago, Novas were just flying off the shelves. Old guys were digging them, young guys were digging them, and girls were digging them, too. Everyone wanted one. Can't blame 'em, really. The Nova offers a lot in a tidy, attractive package. Look at that styling, all retro-modern Eames with its high profile and its real-wood veneer wrapping round those perfect curves!
