t'fiMETY Wednesday, November 24, 1954 Hearing is Believing CONTI BOOT (N RADIO AND MOVIES. In 1926 RCA Victor took the leadership in two fields that were to have funda- mental influences on sound. When sound first came to the movies in 1926, it came on Victor discs. That same year RCA established NBC, the first national radio net- work. The innumerable sound problems created by the two new industries were met by a series of brilliant technical advances of primary importance to the devel- opment of high fidelity.

Great artists like Caruso could be heard only by a minority until in 1903 Victor Red Seal Records first brought them into American homes. To recreate these wonderful performances with greater and greater realism, new acoustical problems had to be solved ... the answers are basic factors in high fidelity today. .’AVJf/JWftWr/lWWS'W, A FIRST STEPS TOWARD HI-FI. The early phonograph sounded like, “a partially educated parrot with a sora throat and a cold in the head”, according to Eldridge R. Johnson, who founded the Victor Talking Machine Company. Johnson brought the disc phonograph new steadiness of pitch with his constant speed spring-motor in 1898; cleared up the cold-in-the-head sound with his new process of wax-recorded pressings in 1,900.
