Gideon Schwartz – Revolution: The History Of Turntable Design

We also listen with our eyes and no one knows this better than Gideon Schwartz. After the expert for audio design already presented quite a blockbuster for the publisher Phaidon with »Hi-Fi: The History of High-End Audio Design,« he now presents the next one with »Revolution – The History Of Turntable Design.« Schwartz makes a good 70 years of design history comprehensible with the help of all kinds of very different turntables and does it in a vivid way: His texts are accompanied by roughly 300 pictures. You can’t balance a 1200 on it, but this book nonetheless offers a solid foundation for hi-fi nerds and design freaks alike.
