TO confine yourself to loud speakers OF
this class
There are many listeners who have
monographs which have been gather
ing dust while the family has been
enjoying the variety of programs Of
fered by the various broadcasting
stations.
The tone chambers and horns of
these monographs can be pressed
into service to help the whole fam
lily to listen in on the programs.
Many devices such as is shown in
hgure have been placed on the mar
ket Tor this purpose. These units
consist OF phones or loud speaker
units with provisions for attaching
them TO the tone arm of the phono-
graph in place of the phonograph
reproducer. BY making use of the
properly designed tone chamber and
horn of the phonograph, this device
enables one to get very good results
in the way of pleasing volume and
good quality Of reproduction. A unit
of this type will cost from IS to
SIS, depending on quality
1t is also possible to get results
from photograph without the ex-
pense of an additional loud speaker
unit for the phonograph by means
of an arrangement similar to that
used in the case of figure 1.
A pair of phones can be used as
one reproducer in connection with
the phonograph horn by means OF
the simple device shown in figure s.
In this case the end a is attached
to the tone arm of the phonograph
and the phones are placed over the
b and c ends of the device.
If you have a phonograph, this
forms the cheapest method of getting
loud speaker results because the de-
vice can be obtained in almost any
radio store for about % cents.

horn with provisions for attaching
a loud-speaker unit or pair of phones
at the mouthpiece OF the horn.
A type of horn to which the ordi-
nary head set may be attached is
shown in figure 1. In this type one
phone is placed over each opening,
A and B. The tubes from both
phones join at the mouthpiece of the
horn and the sound vibrations are
carried to the bell of the horn, there
to be delivered into the room. The
spring tension of the headband is all
that is necessary to keep the phones
in place.
This type of loud speaker will give
very good results. considering that
all that is required is the horn which
can be bought for about IS.
Another type in which the phone
is attached to n horn is shown in
figure .. In this form a single
phone, preferably OF the types known
as loud-speaker units, is attached
into the base of the horn SO that
to all appearances the horn is the
same as many of the commercial
loud speakers now on the market,
which employ an ordinary or slightly
modified phone receiver as the re-
producer which transforms the cleo
trical impulses into sound waves.
Horn Cost Varies.
The cost of the horn in such cases
varies from about IS to $40. while
the loud speaker unit will cost from
about 81, for the ordinary head
phone type. up to sl5 for the special
loud speaker. unit types designed
especially for use as loud speakers.
The type of unit usually used for
this purpose is shown in figure 3.
There are, of course, many loud
speakers on the market which come
complete with loud-speaker unit and
horn and are more or less of the
type shown in Figure 2. These range
in price from $40 to s15, although
there are many which for one reason
