 NelU Scarfon

The combination of the revolu- tionary EQUASONNE circuit with a console of typical Sparton de- sign, to sell at a price within reach of practically every radio listener, has been announced by the makers of Sparton radio.
 Any conclusion that might be drawn that this latest step was in the direction of entering the LOW price competition field was dispell- ed by a statement by Captain Will liam Sparks, president of the Spar to organization.
 "The new Sparton EQUASONNE is emphatically not specially de- signed instrument but the same that Sparton has manufactured with pride since the EQUASONNE circuit was announced. The doubling and doub- ling again of our plant facilities have made possible the natural economies that permit our moder- ate price.
 Every exclusive advantage of the EQUASONNE circuit is preser- we'd intact. It has the selective power at the lower end of the dial that makes Sparton different from all other instruments. The wave band filter so well known in high CT priced spartons, gives the same exquisite purity of tone and free dom from interference that charac- terizes all Spartos.
 Tn the matter of tonal power, richness and fidelity this new Spar ton is worthy of its name. The na- tural velvety smoothness of EQUAsONNE reception is notable, and the dyamic speaker with which this instrument is equipped brings out every light and shadow with amazing beauty.
 Dwelling further on the matter of tone, we are naturally exceeding ly proud of Sparton's acknowledged Radios Richest Voice. We have invited music critics of highest rank to express their opinions regarding the new model and their verdicts have been gratifying. The new model, too, possesses the magnifi- cet richness of other Spartons."
