    Hi, I'm new to gramophones and already have a small record collection. Can you advise whether it is worth buying such a gramophone? looks interesting and has a reflector. It's hard to tell from the video if it sounds better, maybe it's clearer in person. Is it better to choose between victor, columbia, hmv models?

      Hi , Yes the Decca 66 or 88 are good machines but , you can not beat the HMV 102 or 101 portables , the HMV 130 or 150 table grands give really good rendition of both electric & acoustic records
