Electronics for Vinyl is the most comprehensive book ever produced on of the electronic circuitry needed to extract the best possible signal from grooves in vinyl. What is called the ¿vinyl revival' is in full swing, and a clear and comprehensive account of the electronics you need is very timely. Vinyl reproduction presents some unique technical challenges; the signal levels from moving-magnet cartridges are low, and those from moving-coil cartridges lower still, so a good deal of high-quality low-noise amplification is required.
