About Vinyl Manual: How To Get The Best From Your Vinyl

Product Description The  Vinyl Manual is part of the Haynes lifestyle series that helps you to get the most from a hobby, giving an in-depth  overview of vinyl for anyone who is bringing their music collection back to life or discovering the joys of vinyl for the first time. This is not a book for the turntable mechanic, but rather a step-by-step guide to getting the most from your vinyl collection and understanding the technology behind it. We explain how vinyl delivers the unique sound so loved by audio enthusiasts and its evolution over 100 years, from the 78s of the late 19th century to today's advanced electronic formats. We celebrate the art of vinyl collecting and meet some of the world's biggest enthusiasts, including the people who create vinyl records in their millions today.  About the Author Matt Anniss is a freelance writer and has built his career around his passion for electronic music and club culture. He's been involved in the music industry in some capacity - as a DJ, mix-maker, event promoter, journalist, A&R consultant, occasional producer and even record label owner - since his student days in the late '90s. He confesses to be a vinyl obsessive and owns many more records than any sane person should. Patrick Fuller is a former journalist who for 20 years worked with market-leading media brands such as Stuff and What Hi-Fi? His extensive vinyl collection went missing shortly after he left home in 1987, only to turn up 15 years later in his brother's friend's attic, complete with 1000 rock, pop, classical and dance records the Fuller family had mislaid over the years. Patrick created the Haynes Vinyl Manual with his brilliant co-author Matt Anniss and now plays his records on the beloved Technics SL1210s given to him by his wife Louise. His six children have given up complaining.
