Our hi-fi history is often passed over by academics and museum curators, believes Jim Lesurf, which is why books such as Stephen Spicer’s celebration of Leak are so worthwhile
I was recently delighted and excited to hear that a new edition of Stephen Spicer’s book on the history of Leak – Firsts In High Fidelity – has been released. The original edition appeared as a large-format paperback in the year 2000, and it’s a fascinating account of the story of the people involved, the company, and its products.
