   "Audio Amateur" is a lot like "Speaker Builder."  You can't count
on each issue containing a project you want to build, but over time
a number of excellent, professional designs have been presented.  One
of the contributing editors is Erno Borbely, formerly of Dynaco and
Hafler.  He is a prolific designer, and quite thorough.  He has written
a large number of useful articles for the magazine.  Check out his
"Third Generation MOSFETs" series in 1/2:84.  A relative newcomer to
the publication is William Chater.  Chater has a very systematic
approach to his designs, and presents a lot of decent measurements.
He has developed an all-MOSFET power amp and preamp.  Look for the
40W amplifier in 2/3:88 and the preamp in 1/2:90

   It's remarkable that between "Audio Amateur" and "Speaker Builder",
we have the opportunity to learn from the likes of Borbely, Chater,
D'Appolito and Bullock.
