My gramophone museum should be open this time next year! :D

I'm a portable pauper! :lol:

I have an Orchosol that I need to get to someday- maybe this winter.

Help? :?

See the link on page 5 for "help"... :lol:

These Apollos, as the reentrant HMVs benefit most when installed in a big room. That's when you hear actually the powerful sound and the bass...
