HIFICRITIC NEW ISSUE Vol 6 No 2 April-June
hard to believe but yes , we are close to going to press !
Probably printing early next week and mailing out later that week when the ink has dried!
Another amazing issue , packed with variety and some amazing products including three exceptional DACS
There are turntables, 4 streamers , DACS ,
active 2 off, and passive loudspeakers, four off , single and multiple driver designs ,
LP12 improvements
experiences with computers as audio sources
Hi End 2012 Show report
a magic Auto former control unit
the Pete Thomas interview
19 equipment reviews altogether !
classical and pop records
Editors comment and Subjective Sounds
(I think rather more than you get with the equivalent 3 months of issues of the advertisement based monthlies )

Quite noticeable now how the advertisement based monthlies have narrowed their reviewer base.
In HiFi+, the editor Alan Sircom write more than half the copy. Similar trend in HiFi World; HiFi News not quite so bad.
We are fortunate to have some long established reviewers for Critic and I guess that I'd sooner get quality 1.1/2 months late rather than some mediocrity 1 month early.

Too far away to lend a hand, but I hope a review of the Magico shown in skeleton form on the front of the site is included :)

The issue dropped this morning. You are right, it is stuffed to the gills this issue. Quote:No Magico according to the April-June Upcoming section which we should receive in July No more odd than HFN August issue dropping in June!!

The same. I have not received paypal request from a week ago. Just tried emailing. Let's see if I get reply. The same thing happened last issue - no paypal request, no reply to email. I gave up trying in the end.

Appologies all. Are each of you attempting to order single issues? If so, can you email sales@hificritic.com with your request? Just include the issue numbers you are after. We recently moved hosting and even though all has been checked many times over, its still possible your requests are not making it through to sales. Edited by user 10 July 2012 05:11:33(UTC)
