Two Horns might be correct- that's what some of the makes pretty much ended up doing, folding up two horns in one chamber. Cheney did it too, back in the Acoustic era.

Well, I picked up the Orthophonic Credenza that was on Craigslist today for $100.00 in Modesto CA. It's all there, except for the reproducer. Has the Induction disc electric motor. ID plate says "CREDENZA X 8466" which indicates it was made in 1925. It's missing its feet and needs new veneer on the lid. Other than that it's in pretty good shape. I took the motorboard inside & powered it up, works fine, just needs a good clean/lube. The rest is still in the back of my van.

Now I need to sell one of my other players to make room. Anybody interested in a Columbia Period Grafonola Queen Anne model P-20 with electric motor?
