Has Anyone Tried a Masterphone Attachment..??

Post by gramophone78 »

I was wondering if any member has ever tried the Masterphone attachment before. I ask because, I'm afraid to install it on a Exhibition. I just don't want any of the now hard rubber to break off, etc....

If a member has tried one, was there a noticeable difference, or just another gadget or gimmick offered to take ones money from their pocket..?.

Wayne,

I found one under the lid of an oak Victrola XIV I purchased about ten years ago, but never tried it, as I assumed it was more of a gimmick than something practical, but who knows?

Thanks Gene. I'm thinking the same....a gimmick. It looks very fragile also.. :).

I had one, and installed it carefully per the instructions. Zero effect, to my ears.
