''Sound & Vision'' is an American magazine, published by Source Interlink Media, covering home theater, audio, video and multimedia consumer products. ''Stereo Review'' was an American magazine first published in 1958 by Ziff-Davis with the title ''HiFi and Music Review''. It was one of a handful of magazines then available for the individual interested in high fidelity. Throughout its life it published a blend of record and equipment reviews, articles on music and musicians, and articles on technical issues and advice. The name changed to ''HiFi Review'' in 1959. It became ''HiFi/Stereo Review'' in 1961 to reflect the growing use of stereophonic technology in recordings and broadcasts. In 1968 it became, simply, ''Stereo Review'', reflecting the broad shift to stereophonic reproduction and simplifying the title. In the late 1980s, the magazine was acquired by CBS Magazines (now Hachette Filipacchi), and in 1989 it absorbed ''High Fidelity'' magazine. During the 1990s, consumer trends began to branch out into home theater matters and the magazine contents followed in kind. In 1999 ''Stereo Review'' merged with ''Video'', a magazine Hachette Filipacchi had acquired from Reese Communications,〔(GoodDealGames.com: Bill Kunkel interview )〕 to become ''Stereo Review's Sound & Vision'' before settling on its current name in 2000, reflecting how dominant home theater had become in consumer purchases. In June 2009 Hachette Filipacchi sold the publication to Bonnier Corporation, the U.S. division of the Swedish Bonnier Group, along with four other magazines: ''Popular Photography, Boating, Flying'' and ''American Photo''.〔(【引用サイトリンク】Bonnier Corp. Acquires Five Magazine Brands from Hachette Filipacchi Media U.S. )〕 In 2013, Bonnier sold it to Source Interlink, who merged it with its previously owned consumer electronics magazine Home Theater.〔http://www.foliomag.com/2013/source-interlink-media-folds-home-theater-sound-vision#.UfLKT43VCSo〕 One of the key features of the magazine was the permanence of its staff. Some staffers stayed for decades. One of them, Louise Boundas, rose from the ranks to become the magazine's editor from the late 1980s into the 1990s. Another, Julian Hirsch, was known for his technical reviews of equipment; he was involved with the magazine from 1961 until his retirement in 1998, nearly 40 years. A Canadian magazine with the same title and focus ceased publication about a year before ''Stereo Review'' took the name. ==See also== *''Audio'' (magazine) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Sound & Vision (magazine)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
