Dr. Edward Dickinson, head of the Department of History
and Criticism of Music of Overland College, one of the most fa
mous authorities in the world on music, has this to say of the
Cheney Machine:
"The reproduction given by the Cheney is decidedly su
perior to anything that I have ever heard from other machines.
The quality of the original voice is well preserved and there is
a gratifying absence of any unmusical noise from its mechan
isms." The tone of the Cheney is exceptionally soft and rich in y
quality, the squeak and squawk, that has been so objectionable in
other makes of phonograps, has been eliminated and that dis
agreeable scratching sound from the needle has been practi
cally done away with. v
Just as the Cheney Machine excels in its purity and beauty of tone, so docs it surpass all others
in cabinet beauty. The various period models Tank high in artistic merit. A v:ide range of prices
to suit all pocketbooks.
' Terms of payment arranged to suit your conyenienio.
