Current peave

So what do you do if you want to read magazine material published in the mid eighties, or before the Internet achieved critical mass, in other words. Amazingly frustrating to find that most of the non-mainstream stuff, which as published without any electronic systems, may never be ported to the web, even as bitmaps or micro-fiche.

I have an old set of fairly esoteric loud speakers [Ditton 110's, a sideline of Celestion], but the only info I can get about them is in hard copy magazines, where some mercenary soul, who teasingly publishes the contents of the magazines online, will scan pages for me at $5/page.

Aish.
