[Phono-L] Bettini sound and oxidized finish Edison DD reproducer.
After reading a couple of articles in the latest Sound Box, two questions come to mind. 1. How do Bettini cylinders sound? Are they louder, softer, have better high and/or low frequency recorded on them and does these highs/lows reproduce better on playback with Bettini and/or other reproducers? I've never had the good fortune to see or hear anything Bettini. 2. George Paul mentions that the A and B-150s had an oxidized bronze finish on the metal parts and was the only model to feature this. My D25 (serial number 25 has an oxidized finish reproducer and looks just like the one pictured on page 13 but it does not have the damper in it. The horn Elbow on the D25 has a kind of antiqued brass look to it, rather greenish/brass, brush finish. Do I have the wrong reproducer with the Jacobean (D25). What should it have? Neither nickel nor gold would look right with the finish on the horn elbow. I have not finished the mag yet but the articles I have read are wonderful. Ron L

I think I heard my first Cal Stewart record when I was 13 or 14. It added a whole new and different dimension to what I was listening to on music 78s at that impressionable age when I was discovering vintage phonographs in-depth. More than 30 years later, I still enjoy him and always share a transcribed record of Uncle Josh On a Streetcar with high school history classes that I do a variety record and machine presentation for every year. Thank you so much for taking the time to compile, transcribe, design the site and share this with us. I'm sure I'll enjoy it, and I will also check to see if I have any U.J. recordings not appearing on your list.
