HMV 5A 5B soundbox differences - Talking Machine It is a case of clear improvement; HMV engineers launched the 5A which was an English version of the no 5 (orthophonic) which sounded the same, but later they continued experimenting and finally launched the 5B, a definite upgrade of the boomy 5A The 5B lasted many years, while the 5A is much scarcer
The Sound Comparison between HMV 202 and Two-Door Credenza The HMV sounds to me somewhat distant and even muffled in some passages Mind you, both machines are very impressive, but I prefer the Credenza for this recording However, I believe that the real test for these Ortho machines is how they reproduce the full symphony orchestra, which is probably the most complex sound environment in the musical
Project HMV 118. Too far gone? - The Talking Machine Forum — For All . . . The most difficult part is the 118-only tonearm clip Gonna make it next and have chrome plated with rest of the shiny parts The fact that I also got a pristine 118 makes it possible for me to replicate the needed parts Modified speed control parts from a HMV 109 to match the 118 specs Eduardo kindly made copies of my original 118 transfers
Sound Quality: Colonial HMV 113 v HMV 102 - Talking Machine I concur with Steve regarding HMV 102 vs HMV 113 sonic performance The other advantage with the HMV 113 is that you can close the lid while (or whilst) playing While I love my HMV 113, it is no match against the large re-entrants and Orthophonics The HMV 102 wins hands down for portability The HMV 113 is quite heavy!
HMV 156 vs. Victor Consolette - The Talking Machine Forum HMV seems to have copied used numerous standard oak mahogany Victor cabinet designs, almost from the start, so there was definately some design sharing going on until the orthophonic era HMV's model 11, 12, 14, 16, appear to be identical to Victors VV-XVI, XVII, etc, just to name a few
HMV 157 - The Talking Machine Forum — For All Antique Phonographs . . . The HMV 157 has an exponential tone chamber that's divided into two sections before joining at the mouth The larger HMV 163 was fitted with a four chamber horn--as were it's bigger brothers, such as the HMV 194 and 202--emulating the design of the Orthophonic Credenza's horn
HMV 101 and 102 - The Talking Machine Forum The 102 has the aluminum diaphragm HMV 5a soundbox, while the 101 uses mica (HMV 4, the English twin of the Victor 4) The other difference is the auto brake on the 102, which is not on the 101 The horns are comparable, and to my ears both sound good when playing acoustically and electrically recorded discs up to the 30s
Victor HMV exhibition - The Talking Machine Forum — For All Antique . . . The L shaped slot on the Victrola VV-IX does seem to be fractionally longer (but only 0 1mm or so) than the one on the HMV 162, which seems to be enough to stop the pin on the UK soundboxes moving into the other part of the slot when the soundbox is rotated
New Restoration Project - HMV 161 - Talking Machine The hmv no4 soundbox must have been imported from Victor, as I've read somewhere (Sooy memories?) that this was a Sooy development for pure improvement and development of the current soundboxes (Exhibition and no2) by 1924, prior to the electrical recording unveiled by Maxwell and Harrison
