The Cheney Reproducer which searches out hidden treasures in records and restores them to the world. Equipped, with an unusually sensitive and flexible di&Dhragm which responds perfectly to every needle vibration. The scientific construction of the reproducer eliminates "blast." Needle scratch is reduced to a minimum and reproductions come forth pure and clear.
Hidden Treasures In every phonograph record there are delicate tones and overtones which heretofore have been lost in the reproduction. The overtones add tone color to the music and enrich individuality of voice and interpretation. The Cheney is endowed with a method of reproduction radically different from that used m any other phonograph. It brings out the most delicate tones in all their purity and gives to records a mellow quality as lovely as the original itself. Cheney cabinets are period furniture of exquisite design, patterned after the works of master -craftsmen of Europe.
