The Talking Machine Forum — For All Antique Phonographs & Recordings

Years ago I did the same thing with that speaker, except I mounted the back piece of an Orthophonic reproducer to the end of it. The speaker is the same diameter as the back of an Orthophonic reproducer, and with a new soft flange in place, it sounds amazing on my Credenza. I connected it to my Iphone and found the best sound was achieved by changing the equalizer setting to raise the treble. Otherwise on the credenza the bass was too powerful.

I have a bluetooth speaker, probably the same as shown by the OP. It fits nice & snug into one end of a beer coozey, (cozey, koozy?). The bottom of the "coozey" has a hole in it that pushes nice & snug over the end of an Orthophonic tone arm. No modifications needed!!! Sounds pretty good, except you can feel the foam "coozey" vibrate a bit, which probably means it's absorbing sound energy. The other downside is, your beer gets warm...

Good idea, Jerry. It meets my original requirements of cheap and easy to make, plus I imagine that it works good too...
