Your Opinion Please

Post by gramophone78 »

This new Swiss Britanniaphone I bought last month came with a painted flower horn. Today, I thought I would see how a spare all brass horn I have sitting around would look on it.
Just curious what members think...??.

Don't know what the flowered horn looked like, but this looks great... I'd buy it.

That brass horn looks great, but you have the record upside down :mrgreen:
I know, just protecting the felt. :)

If the other horn is the original, it looks better. Obviously you can display your stuff however you prefer, as long as it's reversible.
