Listener comments!

  2:38pm Rich Gorin:

Enjoyed the selection. If it doesn't violate the charter of your program, it would be nice to hear those recordings that were made electrically also transcribed that way.
  7:38pm Phil O'Keefe:

Thanks, Rich. I'm glad you liked the program. Sorry, but all I have is vintage equipment to play my Diamond Discs on. I would like to get an Edisonic reproducer some day. That would noticeably improve the sound quality of 52000-series electrics on my C-200 phonograph. Much better response than a standard reproducer.
  7:41pm Brett tiktin:

i have a Diamond Disc phongraph modle b-80 tabletop and have now 11 phonographs just got the b-80 to day
  10:16am Phil O'Keefe:

That's wonderful, Brett. I think the B-80s were belt-driven if my memory serves me correctly.
