Welcome to my Website of all things Sound
My interest in sound started during my school days, building simple Crystal sets & getting them to work using the School wire fence for an aerial & a wire stake in the ground for an earth.
I then progressed to building 1 valve sets & amplifiers, eventually leaving school to work at the local Radio Shop in my town. I developed a special interest in Sound, Tape recording, Microphones, Speakers, in particular Vintage loudspeakers.
I worked in Radio Servicing for a number of years, then when Television started, learnt to install and service TV receivers, at first Black & White sets, then colour. Gained a lot of knowledge about television aerials, sometimes we had to mount them on tall towers to get a signal in the areas we did the installations.
On this website I have displayed Radios, Phonographs, Loudspeakers, Gramophones & associated material from my many years of collecting.
