Editorial : Audio Reality is the title of a new book encouraging "hands-on" audio by DIY author and tube gear manufacturer Bruce Rozenblit of Transcendent Sound.

But, most unfortunately, despite the excellence of the author and his other outstanding books, Volume 2 is really just material that should have been added to volume 1 but turns out to be inadequate anyway. His world was of the rope, and leather, and where the deer and the antelope romed, and where seldom was heard, and not a discouraging word. Secular scientists will only accept naturalistic interpretations. While reading, I can imagine the spectacular landscape, the mystical mountains and the path that slings forward, upward and then zigzags down again towards the river, deep down in the gorge. I finished the book and couldn't figure out why a quick, engaging, thought-provoking novel left me cold. It has all the
