As for the tone, it is matchless, suburb, supreme above
anything else being made today (including the Porter). The 8 combs produce
beautifully clear and distinct harmonies, making it really is hard to
believe it's playing more than one disc at a time (until you compare
it with a single-disc machine!) If you've ever heard an excellent hand
bell choir, you have some idea what to expect with this Polyphon. It
looks a bit like a Grandfather Clock (though much larger), but the sound
will surprise you: full, loud, and resonant, it's reminiscent of "Carillon"
church bells-unmistakably exquisite. Each tune (of which 78 are currently
being produced) plays for nearly two minutes.

Seeing this in person would forever change your thoughts about music boxes. The smaller ones you've seen couldn't prepare you for this! You would be truly overcome with amazement, I can assure you. Current production is limited to 4 of these masterpieces. Two are currently housed in museums in Asia, one is being built for a museum in Europe, and only one is available for sale. This truly unique instrument is a testimony to the fact
that, at long last, the Disc Music Box is being revived (music
box history).
