If the Uniti gets less than 5 stars I'll be surprised.......

Re: August issue

Hi,

If there's more than 5 you'll have lots of users asking why you can't adopt the 6 star system for all products...

Anyhoo - the proof readers do an ace job as it is - yee of little faith!

Hello Claire,


When are we going to see a review of Samsung's 8000 series LED back lit television?


In anticipation.

...Postman Pat willing...


PP might well have been willing, except he stuck not only this month's WHFS&V through next door's letterbox, but "another hi-fi mag" that I have on subscription too. Grrrr...

Must contact Specsavers to find out when their next mailshot is.

Re: August issue

Got the August 09 issue this morning, Pages 3 - 82 (the 1st half of the magazine) took me ALL OF 15 minutes to read, so that's the magazine done for the month - now I'll just re-read the back issues (for the millionth time!)

The Buyer's Guide (the 2nd half of the magazine) is the same old stuff with the ads etc. etc.

Aren't these iPods, iPhones reviewed by the magazine's sister publication, STUFF? 7 full pages dedicated to these electrical gizmos just seem too much, seeing how the content for hi-fi is diluted as it is, in favour of A/V.

Fantastic Cyrus 8SE + PSX-R prize for the upcoming contest though!

Re: August issue

Since the (original) Walkman era, we've always put more portable kit in the early-summer issues (remember our Stereo on the Go supplements in the 1980s/1990s?) because it's a popular time for people to buy them, pre-holiday. Hence coverage of the very latest multimedia portables plus battery-powered docks designed to fit in your suitcase. We'll follow this up with a special feature next issue on in-ear headphones.

Sorry it took you 15 minutes to read an issue that is packed with hi-fi - including the lead First Test of the NaimUniti, to exclusive First Tests of the new Cambridge Audio 650A and 650C amplifier and CD player, a stereo speakers Group Test, a hi-fi only Temptations test section, The Big Question on hi-fi system-matching and a four-page feature on the Future of Hi-fi. You must be a fast reader!
