  PHONOGRAPH, n.  An irritating toy that restores life to dead noises.
  
  

  Phonograph \Pho"no*graph\, n. [Phono- + -graph.]
     1. A character or symbol used to represent a sound, esp. one
        used in phonography.
        [1913 Webster]
  
     2. (Physics) An instrument for the mechanical registration
        and reproduction of audible sounds, as articulate speech,
        etc. It consists of a rotating cylinder or disk covered
        with some material easily indented, as tinfoil, wax,
        paraffin, etc., above which is a thin plate carrying a
        stylus. As the plate vibrates under the influence of a
        sound, the stylus makes minute indentations or undulations
        in the soft material, and these, when the cylinder or disk
        is again turned, set the plate in vibration, and reproduce
        the sound.
        [1913 Webster]
  
     3. an instrument for reproducing sounds, especially music,
        previously recorded on a plastic cylinder or disk as a
        pattern of bumps or wiggles in a groove. A needle (stylus)
        held in the groove is made to vibrate by motion (rotation)
        of the recording, and the vibrations caused by the bumps
        and wiggles are transmitted directly to a membrane, or
        first to an electronic amplifier circuit, thereby
        reproducing with greater or less fidelity the original
        sounds. A phonograph which is equipped with electronics
        enabling the playback of sound with high fidelity to the
        original is often called a hi-fi.
  
     Note: In the 1990's such devices are beginning to be replaced
           in many homes by compact disk players; the production
           of plastic recordings of music for playback on a
           phonograph has almost ceased for entertainment
           purposes.
