Model 1A HMV Automatic Gramophone 2 record selection

  • เผยแพร่เมื่อ 1 ต.ค. 2024
  • 1929 HMV Automatic Gramophone can play up to 20 intermixed 10 and 12 inch 78rpm records automatically. Controls can be set to continuous play, repeat play, or single play. Functions can also be controlled from the remote pedastal.
    This is the deluxe model, the standard model had no front doors or cut glass lid lamp. The instrument shown here is in original condition. The reject record bin is felt and sponge lined for the safety of the discs, and after playing hundreds of records over the years, I have never broken or damaged one yet.

    That is fantastic. I saw one of these in the flesh in chesterfield and they are really impressive and very rare. Congratulations on owning this!

      In the late 1920's, motors were becoming more common but electronics using valves was still being developed.

    Marvelous! I was a bit worried when I saw what happened to the record when it was finished though! Seemed to be chucked unceremoniously into a bin to the right of the turntable. Any get broken that way?

    It sounds like it's being played with an electric pickup, but it looks like a standard Nr. 5 reproducer.

    Thank you! We used to have, “I lift up my finger,” and it was wonderful to hear it again after probably 60 years! Sadly I broke our gramophone by winding it over hard, and we got a modern hi-fi in about 1960

    Play 20 records... ? But should the needle not be changed after every record played?

    • @Mechsounds
      @Mechsounds  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks for your question. There are needles that last 10 sides before you have to change them. There were also semi permanent ones available as well. Keep safe.

    I've always wondered, was HMV His Masters Voice the British/European branch of Victor/Victrola or were they (HMV) independently run and manufactured apart from Victor in Camden, New Jersey? Both companies used the famous listening dog logo.

  • @that1940sguy
    @that1940sguy 15 ปีที่แล้ว

    Which leads me to ask... do you know if this type of changer was ever sold in any players in the USA? Or was it just a British / Australian HMV changer?

    Nice; must not have used any pot metal in the mech.
    5 stars.
