  • The BSR Ampligram was an innovative electric amplifier and gramophone unit introduced in 1933. It featured a powerful 5.9-watt undistorted output, making it suitable for public entertainment. The unit was housed in a compact, portable oak case measuring 17 x 21.5 x 11.75 inches.

    Key features of the Ampligram included:

    • Two-stage amplifier
    • Electric gramophone motor with automatic stop
    • Marconiphone pick-up
    • Tone and volume controls
    • High-grade moving-coil milliammeter
    • AC-operated with adjustable mains input (190-250V, 50Hz)
    • Output transformer with three ratios for speaker matching (2, 7.5, and 15 ohms)

    The amplifier used an AC/SG valve in the first stage, followed by a PP5/400 valve in the output stage. A UU120/500 full-wave rectifier valve provided high tension.

    Two models were available:

    • AG1: Standard model
    • AG2: Included provisions for microphone attachment with a special input transformer and changeover switch

    The Ampligram was praised for its exceptional sound quality, particularly its bass response. It maintained constant amplification from 50 to 5,000 Hz, with attenuation above this range to reduce needle scratch.
