Hello,
A friend of mine has recently inherited an Edison Gem cylinder phonograph and she has asked me to source the horn which is missing. I have looked at various websites and there seems to be a wide variety of types and prices. As I have zero experience with this type of equipment I am looking to this forum for advice. Photos attached, thanks.
Terry.

Some versions look like simple cones which would be easy enough to fabricate yourself......
