August 1963 - Produkt-Neuvorstellungen in den USA
Diese August-1963 Ausgabe ist darum so besonders interessant, weil gerade in 1963 zwei herausragende Innovationen von einer Funkausstellung aus Europa in Berlin (auch im August 63) kamen. Das war der neue DUAL 1009 Hifi-Plattenspieler und der Philips CC-Recorder. Beide Produkte schrieben im Anschluß Weltgeschichte. Und davon ist in der US-Ausgabe noch nichts zu lesen. Warum die ganz normalen Presseinfos bei den US-Importeuren bezüglich dieser europäischen Neuigkeiten nicht angekommen waren, ist nicht mehr zu ergründen.
Hier kommen also die Hifi-Neuvorstellungen 1963 aus US-Sicht.
