I would recommend reading "The Complete Guide To High-end Audio" by Robert Hartley. The book that I have is the second edition and I've had it for a couple of years now. I also recommend reading "The Master Handbook of Acoustics", it deals mostly with the basics of sound and room acoustics. Other than those 2 books, I can't recommend anything else, I haven't got around to reading any other yet. I will be interested to see if anyone can recommend something else.
