Robert A. Baker

“ ... such was the faithfulness of the sound emanating from the gramaphone that the dog was unable to differentiate a record of its master's voice from that of his actual master!"

– Colin Symes
Setting the Record Straight: a material history of classical recording
(Middletown, Conn.: Wesleyan University Press, 2004): 29
