History of the gramophone

The gramophone, invented by the American Edison in 1877, is generally regarded as a marvel of the 19th century. It is a machine that records and reproduces sound using analog signals. In the 1940s, the gramophone was the most important music player. After the 1960s, people gradually entered the digital age and the gramophone gradually disappeared from people's sight. However, the sounds recorded in the era of analog signals are still played through the gramophone, which sounds more classic and valuable. What is not known is that most classic gramophones are manually operated. To revive the classics, you can operate the gramophone with a crank.

The record as a status symbol

The gramophone supports 7-inch and 10-inch records. So you can play the favorites of your youth on it. Comes with a vinyl record that plays 3 pieces of music:

• The Merry Gent
• Memory Of A Dance
• The Giant Killers

The volume can be adjusted manually using the rotary knob. There is also a micro USB port that can be connected to an external power supply to reduce the intensity of the hand crank.
