Greetings: For whatever it's worth: have been experimenting this past year with one particular record, an operatic trio, "Qual volutta" (Caruso, Journet, Alda) that contains several VERY LOUD passages. Have played this disc well over 100 times on several different wind-up machines, all with newly rebuilt reproducers and with a new steel needle for every play... and I can't detect any deterioration in quality. Cheers, etc. Doug -- _________________________________________________________________ Shed those extra pounds with MSN and The Biggest Loser! http://biggestloser.msn.com/ From [email protected] Mon Mar 10 19:14:27 2008 From: [email protected] (Robin & Joan Rolfs) Date: Mon Mar 10 19:39:50 2008 Subject: [Phono-L] Why Couldn't Edison Think of This?

Haven't you ever seen one?

This is a prototype that Charles Edison designed for use as an "out-of-doors phonograph" as he was seeking a machine to play "more robusr" outdoor music. It is pictured with its proper horn on page 46 of Frow's book on the Edison Disc Phonograph.
