[Phono-L] Bettini sound and oxidized finish Edison DD reproducer.

2007-06-04 Thread Ron L

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.

On this new website we have spent many an hour transcribing from original 
recordings Cal Stewart's monologues and skits. We have added to these his humor 
as published in his Pumpkin Centre Stories. We are looking for several more 
of his recordings or skits not on this list. If any of you out there can help 
us with the ones we are missing, please let us know.

Hello Rick ~
This is fabulous.  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.

Best regards,
Andy Baron
