They also made phonograph amplifiers that are now used as guitar amplifiers in some cases. These amplifiers' sounds are similar to the sounds of the Fender Princeton.[citation needed] They are valued for their all-tube signal path and hand-wired circuit. Many Webster-Chicago record changers were installed in Magnavox home entertainment systems in the 1940s and early 1950s.[citation needed]
Their leading business was wire recorders. They purchased the rights to produce recorders in 1945 from the Armour Research Foundation.[1] Webster-Chicago simplified the design and developed a recorder that sold for only $150, half the price of competing models.[2] By the 1950s it was the leading manufacturer of wire recorders in the United States.[3]
The wire recorder business was short-lived. In 1952 Webcor introduced its first magnetic tape recorder, and by 1955 magnetic tape recorders overtook wire ones.[4]
In the 1960s the firm began to face strong competition from German and Japanese imports. It was purchased by US Industries in 1967, and faded from prominence in the 1970s.[citation needed]
