Piano Unit Announced by the Engineers' Serv-
ice Company Is a New Product of
Marvelous Effects.
The Engineers' Service Company, with main office
at 25 Church street, New York, and offices at 28 East
Jackson boulevard, Chicago, and 331 Bay street,
Toronto, Out., announces the Ensco piano unit which
is a loudspeaker sensation. "Simply attach the Ensco
piano unit to your piano and the cord to your radio
set—it only takes a minute—and you have a mar-
velous, resonant loudspeaker," says the announcement.
"This wonderful device makes use of the perfect
sound-reproducing qualities of the piano soundboard.
It took years to develop the piano to its present
state of perfection, and you can now enjoy perfect
radio reproduction by using this sound-board. It
doesn't show—it does not mar the piano in any way
or interfere with its use as a piano. Fits any piano,
grand or upright, and works on any radio set.
"The reproduction is marvelous. The sonorous
bass notes, the rolling notes of the middle register,
and the thin, sharp tones of the upper treble—all per-
fect, and the voice sunds natural. The famous Enscoe
drive mechanism—the rugged direct-drive, distortion-
less unit developed by Clyde J. Fitch, makes this
possible. It is new, and the results will surely
astound you. If you do not have a piano, use it on
the table or a panel, or door."
