[78-L] ear tubes

[Ron L'Herault]

I find the ear tubes even on some brown wax cylinder playback to be a bit
loud.   I was however, able to make out the announcement on one cylinder
that I could not understand when I listened through the horn.   Disk
machines being louder in general than cylinders are probably way to loud
through ear tubes.

There were heart beat sounds records for doctors which came with an ear tube
attachment to be like a stethoscope.  There is no reason why a real
stethoscope could not be adapted to fit a disc reproducer.  There are
reproduction ear tubes being made now for phonograph collectors. 
Charlie Hummel had them last fall at the Mechanical Music Extravaganza which
is happening again next Sunday.

I've heard cylinders played back thru ear tubes. Pretty impressive sound

overall, considering what they sound like played thru a horn.

So I'm wondering if there was ever a machine sold that would play acoustic
disc records thru ear tubes. I've never heard of one, but hardware is not my
specialty.
