Phonographs

 

Thomas Edison invented the phonograph in 1877.  His original records were made of tinfoil.  In 1887 Emile Beliner invented a disk record which was patented in 1896.  Later he went on to develop the matrix record, which could produce unlimited duplicate recordings.

Hi-Fi, which proceeded and produced greater sound, thanks mostly to better speakers. Stereo recordings came in the late 1950s.

 

From the late 1870s to the early 1980s phonographs (F B Fenby coined the phrase with a patented unsucssessful paper tape sound machine of the early 1860s) ,also sometimes called gramophones (made popular by the Gramophone Company of England, primarely wind up style machines) were the most common sound reproduction devices.

 

Phonographs or Phono Graphs (now called turntables and record players) came to refer to any device that played cylindar records.

 

Still prefered by many audiophiles.

Some of the best known brands of phonographs include: Victor, Califore, Victola, Columbia, Stomberg, Brunswick, Edison, RCA
