hi scott and denise
you should have called auction hunters

I would expect that if you put a good soundbox on it, an HMV or Victor
Exhibition, Victrola no. 2 or 4, or any decent generic mica-diaphragmmed piece,
the machine would actually sound pretty fair - better than most portables, for
instance, as at least you've got an external horn. With the
The arm joints and horn joints are quite sloppy. Improving them improves
the sound.I fit a Victor acoustic arm onto mine and it sounded quite
authentic.

That's why I had suggested a stronger spring could be put in the barrel,
probably at minimal cost. (I had a special spring put in my 30s Thorens
portable and it came to around $60 plus shipping. Plays 12 discs like
gangbusters now.) And as for discussing crap-o-phones, the one external-horn
You guys have convinced me to buy one... that's scary.

Thanks! While it should be good for our business, it really has little
direct impact. We do these shows to promote the hobby in general. We all
know the sad reality that we are aging and we need another generation to
fall in love with these musical treasures. We see people every show how do
fall
I am very sad and upset that I must bring to you very sad news. Mr. Robert R.
Johnson of the famous Mr. Victor Phonograph Museum, avid Oregon Duck fan and a
friend to most of us in the phonograph world, was unable to beat the odds this
time and passed away yesterday afternoon after a short
Thanks, Dennis - it works great and people are amazed that an acoustic horn can
amplify a phone.

Thank you Brice, for letting me know. I will really miss Bob and all of the
wonderful things he has done for our hobby. Years ago, Bob had the parts I
needed to restore a Victrola Credenza. I always enjoyed seeing his wonderful
collection and the hospitality of Karen. RIP Bob

This is very sad, indeed. I've known Bob and Karen for many years. Genetta and

Thank you Brice, for letting us know about Bob's passing.
I'm shocked - Bob always seemed so fit and healthy for the years I've known
him. And he was, as you wrote, most generous with other collectors. In my
case, he tolerated my many arcane questions in the course of researching

I am saddened by the news. Bob was a true treasure and will surely be

I was stunned to hear about Bob. I'd been out of touch with him in recent
years, but he and Karen could not have been better hosts when I visited them to
shoot images for the Fabrizio/Paul books. Stunned. Brice, please keep me in the
loop.

Paula and I are very sad as well. Our condolences to the family. Sad
indeed. It is a tragic loss.
Our thoughts are with the family.
