In 1974, this Mario Bellini-designed wedge was the cassette deck to have. Inspired by the ‘ET personal 55’ adding machine he designed for Olivetti – it’s one of the most striking pieces of hi-fi ever made. Mike and David sing its praises, and reckon it’s a future classic.
Every episode of Hi-Fi Riff features Mike Evans’ and David Price’s frank views about all manner of weird and wonderful hi-fi designs. Business executive Mike has a wealth of knowledge from previous hi-fi retail experience, and David has written about hi-fi for thirty years. Now Editor-in-Chief of StereoNET, he’s picked up a few things along the way.
