Audio (magazine)
''Audio'' magazine was a periodical published from 1947 to 2000, and was America's longest-running audio magazine.〔(Rane. Pro Audio Reference. ''Audio magazine (1947–2000)'' )〕 ''Audio'' published reviews of audio products and audio technology as well as informational articles on topics such as acoustics, psychoacoustics and the art of listening. ''Audio'' claimed to be the successor of ''Radio'' magazine which was established in 1917.〔''Audio'', Table of contents, October 1963.〕
==History==
''Audio'' began life in Mineola, New York in 1947 as ''Audio Engineering'' for the purpose of publishing new developments in audio engineering. In 1948, the Audio Engineering Society (AES) was established and in 1953 they began publishing their definitive, scholarly periodical, the ''Journal of the Audio Engineering Society''.〔(AES Journal Article Database Search )〕 ''Audio Engineering'' magazine dropped the word "engineering" in 1954 and shifted to a more consumer- and hobbyist-oriented focus while retaining a serious scientific viewpoint. In 1966, ''Audios headquarters were moved to Philadelphia and the periodical was printed by North American Publishing Company.〔(Roger Russell. ''Audio magazine history'' )〕
In 1979, CBS bought ''Audio'' from its Philadelphia publisher and moved operations to New York. CBS then bought a group of magazines from Ziff-Davis, including sometime competitor Stereo Review, which soon found itself sharing office space (but not staff) with Audio. In October 1987, Peter Diamandis led a management buyout of the CBS magazine division with 19 magazines with $650 million of financing from Prudential Insurance. Diamandis Communications Inc. soon sold seven magazines for $243 million and in April 1988 sold ''Audio'' and the rest of the magazines to Hachette Filipacchi Médias for $712 million.〔 "Mr. Diamandis and his management team will make about $95 million."〕 Peter Diamandis remained in control of the magazine group and in 1989 bought competing audio magazine ''High Fidelity'' and merged its subscription and advertiser lists with those of ''Stereo Review'', firing ''High Fidelitys staff and shutting down its printing.〔(Stereophile magazine. August 1989, Volume 12, Number 8. ''High Fidelity Is Dead''. )〕
''Audios final appearance was the combined February/March issue in 2000.〔(Roger Russell. Collection of equipment reviews from past issues of ''Audio Engineering'' and ''Audio'', 1981–2000 )〕 Hachette Filipacchi Media U.S. group publisher Tony Catalano told reporters that trouble in the high-performance audio sector led to the cancellation of the magazine. ''Sound & Vision'', the successor to ''Stereo Review'', would become the publishing group's sole magazine containing reviews of home audio equipment.〔(Stereophile. January 18, 2000. Audio ''magazine throws in the towel''. )〕
