Modern Edison Home Phonograph

After more than three years of experimentation and development, Norman Bruderhofer created a modern version of the old Edison phonograph, but designed it with much lower lateral resistance and tracking force for significantly improved sound fidelity.

Norman's Passive High-Rise can play almost any groove thread as there is no tracking force applied to the cylinder. The video shows a 1897/98 Columbia brown wax cylinder record, played with doorknob stylus.
