History

The first issue of What Hi-Fi? magazine was published by Haymarket Media Group in the UK in 1976, costing 35p and promising to be “the only magazine to list and price every available hi-fi unit”.[4]

The magazine was focused on hi-fi equipment for a mainstream audience, recommending turntables and cartridges for people to use at home, but also covered “Sound & Vision” products, including the first Video Recorder machines.
