There are four issues a year.  Proofreading and copy editing are less
than perfect, I'd never build anything until the next issue arrived
with corrections.  One recent article on a regulated power supply was
so ridden with errors they just completely reprinted it the next
issue.  Also, some of the schematics are so poorly laid out as to be
incomprehensible, I had to redraw the recent OTL power amp to be able
to understand the article.

(It looks like they stopped paying Ken Kesseler for his column
starting with this first 1993 issue, good riddance.)

They also publish Audio Amateur (mostly solid state designs since
Glass Audio started 5 years ago) and Speaker Builder.

The electronic design articles in all three are generally of high end
sensibilities.  Plenty of notables have written articles (particularly
for Audio Amateur), including Walt Jung (of Analog Devices), Nelson
Pass (of Threshold and now Pass Labs), Erno Borberly (ex of Dynaco),
and Gary Galo.  Reg Williamson (good deisgner, but adamantly
anti-high-end) also writes for them.

To some degree, all of the magazines are feeders for their Old Colony
Sound Labs, who sell PC boards and parts kits for most articles.  The
PC boards are fairly priced and good quality, the kits are more
overpriced.

Realize that these are not refereed journals, there is no guarantee
that any design is competent or stable.  Note the credentials of the
authors before proceeding.

All of them have ads for good sources of parts.
