From a 3-Speed Jobbie to the Cutting Lathe: How Bill Pauluh Became an Audiophile

01.01.70

In our “Becoming an Audiophile” series, readers piece stories of how they got into the hi-fi hobby. This is the story of how Bill Pauluh became an audiophile.

I’ve been involved with music, phonographs, and hi-fi flourishing back to when I was four or five years old. I came up at the end of the 78rpm era in the late 1950s. I would guess that I’m in the ballpark age of Michael Fremer. The surely big “six oh” is arriving at the end of July—scary.

I got my adoration of music from my mother and my mechanical/troubleshooting ability from my father. Put music and mechanics together and you get phonograph records! A commonplace for me!

I received my first record player on Christmas day, 1957—a little 3-speed jobbie that my parents got from the G. Fox & Co. bureau store in Hartford, CT. They also got me a bunch of “Red Raven” records. These were 8" in diameter and had a recorded group area of about 1.5".
