Just opened my mailbox to find an issue of Home Theater Magazine, with an insert advising that UAV has ceased publication, and the rest of my subscription would be fulfilled with issues of HT.
While UAV had its good points, I though SGHT went steadily downhill ever since they went to a large, glossy format, even moreso when they relaunched as UAV.
I have most of their original issues which I read when I first got into this stuff in the early 90's, and enjoyed their style, which read more like a journal than anything else.
But when they got bought up by the same company that owned HT, it seemed kind of obvious that someone had to go. They have been sharing some of their better writers (Peter Putman, for example), so hopefully the good guys will not disappear from the AV scene.
Oh well...I occasionally buy HT on the news stand when I get itchy for something to read...guess I won't have to do that for a few months.
