Pathé VII Sound Observations

Post by pellicano1 »

For you Pathé owners, do you notice a huge sound volume difference between stylus playing and steel needle playing? Volume is tremendous with steel needle but ball stylus it drops and doesn't have the punch laterals do. Happily surprised!

Also, The volume pull knob on the left of my VII seems to be stuck in and will not pull out. Anyone?

Thank and happy playing!

I have not failed. I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work.

I cannot answer to your volume question, but your machine looks very nice. :)

My Pathéphone VII shed its "bunting" applique`s years ago... :?
