Oak cabinet, Go to Youtube to see the machine in action. Type in "Sonoraphone" and its the 2nd video Explaining oepration. $1650, Can deliver to Stantons, or Fall Wayne, and points in between!

The reproducer tracks across the record by a mechanically rotated feedscrew! I played this during the Wayne show to much interest and conversation. And yes, it sounds excellent. Reproducer has been rebuilt, gears and bearings oiled. Double spring motor. Has adapter for playing Pathé discs as well! And, a swanky push rod volume control!

That is super cool!

Is there anything going on between the 2 tubes? Slip fit?

Did Sonora ever produce full console phonograph with this mechanism, or were they all table-top machines?
