THE MUSIC TRADE REVIEW
Every part of the Ku-Allen Phonograph Motor is designed and made
by master mechanics. Each part is inspected first as a unit—and
then in the final assembly. The output is purposely limited that
our motor expert may personally oversee practically each operation.
Ku-Allen Motors use a simple, direct drive. Thus the friction
which prevents motors from running uniformly and lessens their
power is minimized.
Ku-Allen Motors maintain their uniform speed until run down,
which prevents loss of pitch when playing records.
A heavy cast frame prevents warping. Parts are not pulled out
of position, as often occurs with stamped frames.
A cast bottom plate gives a better bearing—that of steel against
casting, which mechanics agree is the proper combination.
As a result Ku-Allen Motors are quiet running, uniform in speed
and powerful and absolutely guaranteed.
Three long-running sizes—large, medium, small.
The Ku-Allen Motor has been adopted by some of America's lead-
ing phonograph makers. Other manufacturers are invited to write.
