Audio Erotica By Jonny Trunk
From austere post-war Britain to poppy pre-millennium Japan,Ā Audio EroticaĀ presents a nostalgic nirvana of the strangest and most significant period hi-fi brochures. Alphabetically listed, from Aiwa to Zenith, with Braun, JVC Nivico, Nakamichi, Sony and everything in between, this book will resonate with any music fan.Ā Ā
Ā
Setting the tempoĀ areĀ the pipe-smoking, high-end separates (amplifiers, speakers, turntables) of the 1950s, followed by the swinging Dansette record players of the 1960s, the prog-brushed-metal musicĀ centresĀ of the 1970s, and the sleek capitalist cabinet stack systems of the 1980s ā not forgetting the aerobic stereo sound portability facilitated by the boom-box, and that final high-fidelity, hardware hurrah: the compact disc.Ā All accompanied by questionable fashion decisions and acres of shag-pile carpet.Ā
Ā
The evocative brochures inĀ Audio EroticaĀ track the technological development of audio equipment before the digital download, while simultaneously revealing the way hi-fiĀ was marketed to the listening public. With knobs on.
