  • Annotazioni
  • Nickel-plated fittings, black enamelled metal horn, mahagony cabinet. A mechanical loud-speaker/amplifier primarily designed for use with crystal sets. The amplifying action depended on the friction between a revolving glass disc (driven by a 70 rpm clockwork gramophone motor) and a thin pad of cork: the pressure of the pad varied through a reed connected to the armature of a S.G. Brown Type 'A' headphone earpièce. The vibrations of the armature were magnified by the power in the friction drive and were applied to a horn-loaded diaphragm connected to the cork pad.
