Since it belongs to EdisonPhonographGuy, he will likely say "No".hexaphone wrote:Use "Make an Offer"...........Make an offer of $25 and see what they say

ya well some people might think it is over priced, but by chance there is someone who just has to have it and it is a rare piece. It just might be for that millionaire who thinks they have it all then realizes, maybe they don't. lol.

Well I guess someone didn't think it was over priced. It sold within 24 hours. $120.00 makes me wonder, did I shoot myself in the foot? lol. Glad it is going to someone who will appreciate it.

Re: edison volume control on ebay
I don't think that's overpriced, if I wanted one, but I'm more of a "volume guy" anyway.
Still a very interesting piece. They must have though raised havoc on the records and to some extent the stylus when you close that sound tube off so close to the origination of the sound and all that vibration has nowhere to go...

Re: edison volume control on ebay
I always thought the same thing about the records. I have one of these that came in a box of parts someone gave me a few years ago and while it's neat to have, I never use it unless someone wants to see (hear?) how it works. I prefer my Triumph as loud as it can be!Valecnik wrote:I don't think that's overpriced, if I wanted one, but I'm more of a "volume guy" anyway.

Re: edison volume control on ebay
I always thought that the first chairs with wheels, aka office chairs, were a sort of volume control. Just sit right in front of the machine and push yourself back in the very unlikely event you thought it was too loud. To me it's not the reduced volume that's the concern as much as the deterioration of sound quality when you put a barrier like that between the music and your ears. I removed the volume control from my C19, (unscrewed the muffball)and dropped it into the back of the machine years ago.OrthoSean wrote:I always thought the same thing about the records.
