Audio Erotica is a nostalgic deep dive into the golden age of hi-fi, gathering rare and previously unpublished vintage brochures from the 1950s through the 1980s. From pipe-smoking audiophiles and Dansette record players to brushed-metal ’70s music centers and ’80s boombox culture, this archive charts the evolution of audio technology before the digital era—and the creative ways it was marketed.

Presented alphabetically from Aiwa to Zenith and designed in the same format as the cult favorite Auto Erotica, the book celebrates the unforgettable style and sound culture of a bygone era, complete with a screen-printed “brushed aluminum” cover that echoes the systems inside.
