HiFiMedia: Returning To Print (Digitally)
Enjoy the new issue and its redesign.
Editorial By Andrija Curkovic
After a two-year hiatus in publishing PDF editions, during which we focused on other projects and web publications, we are thrilled to present you with a new issue in digital format, driven by your numerous requests. Alongside free access to all articles, this issue brings a refreshed graphic design, aligned with our future direction. Next year, we celebrate our 30th anniversary. Over the past twenty-nine years, we have witnessed significant technological shifts in the audio-video industry, as well as changes in consumer habits. To adapt to these changes and the needs of our readers, we will gradually introduce certain modifications leading up to the anniversary. The first of these is already visible in the more relaxed, modern, and accessible design, tailored to appeal to a younger generation of readers. The thematic structure of the magazine (technology, music, and film) remains unchanged, as it has been since 1996. Our goal is to stabilize the publication of PDF editions on a quarterly basis by autumn 2026 and, at the same time, enhance our website with new and archived articles.
