Dear all,
When were the best years in Hi-Fi, was it the 1950s, when mono was kicking off? Was it 1960s, when stereo was first introduced and new formats such as quadrophonic boomed and bombed very quickly. Was it the 1970s, when big was better, and (don't quote me, my opinion) everyone began looking to some fine Japanese equipment (Sony, Pioneer etc.) to replace our out-dated British makes. Was it the 1980s, where things began to get technical and Philips promised us all "the pure sound" with some silver shiny disk thing, or was it the 1990s where everything Hi-Fidelity died and some small compressed mp3s took over. Or, is it yet to come? Your opinions please!
