Very interesting museum!! It looks small but every corner is full of objects with a story. Thanks very much for the tour and the information about this beautiful collection of unique objects. 100% recommended.

Unique and magical place An excellent welcome A guide who introduced us to original instruments from different eras I recommend this place because it is a magical place

Fascinating if you love music and vinyl. Cheap entry 10 euros and owner only too happy to talk about the collection and play music through the many various systems. Loved it and cant recommend it too much.

Wow. What a fabulous collection of rare and unusual talking machines and memorabilia. All in working order and can be played by the very knowledgeable and helpful staff. Spent at least 2 hours there. Could have spent another 2. A must see for anyone interested in the history of recorded sound.

Just ESPECTACULAR, this magnificent place is soooooo underrated, it is absolutely magical,it’s like travelling back in time, the collection of Gramophones and Phonographs is out of this world, I know Paris has got lots of wonderful museums but this one for all of music lovers is A MUST. I promise you it’s going to blow your brains out. Luigi

Very nice little museum with a guided tour by an enthusiast. Many very old and rare devices are in working order that the owner made us listen to!! Unusual objects. What a godsend to have a museum dedicated to the history of our vinyl records. Many thanks and we will be happy to come back!

Magic and professionalism

The collection of phonographs, musical devices and vintage sound machines is extensively complete from mid 19th century to the 2000's.

Amazing museum, well worth the €10 admission! All kinds of gramophones and record players in working condition. Very nice people who are more than happy to explain the history of these incredible machines to you. A must-visit in Paris if you are interested in this sort of things!

Small but worthwhile, we got a guided tour without asking because there was a bit of chaos due to two events. Most of the equipment was demonstrated to us and a lot was explained.

Visited 23 times, no cap it's bussin

Genuinely incredible experience, I learnt so much and was in awe at the large collection to sound machines. Definitely recommend if you are into records and the history of the machines !!!!

Small museum to discover. Very informative guided tour with demonstrations of old gramophones which take us on a journey into the past.

A timeless place (by definition), bringing together incredible machines where you can discover everything about sound recording during a visit. The guide was passionate and fascinating! THANKS. I recommend.

This was a wonderful experience. The collection is vast and covers the whole of sound and recording. The tour was incredibly insightful and I generally can't recommend it enough. Thank you!

Great place with a great guy running it and an amazing demonstration. Woth every minute of your time. A must visit place.

Very kind and welcoming, one of my favorite museum experiences ever ❤️

Amazing place! Lovely tour, and an absolute joy and privilege listening to all the old recordings.

Incredible collection, very accommodating guide if you want, she explained the history of the machines and let us play records (and cylinders)

An amazing collection of historic recording and playing devices. Guide was very accommodating and explained things in English for me - much appreciated. Would 100% recommend.

A trip in time and in sound! Amazing.

A small but mighty collection of beautiful machines from the first century or so of recorded sound. The proprietors are friendly and know the exhibits very well. The best-sounding museum in Paris!

SO COOL

m a g n i f i q u e !

The best phonograph museum that I have seen. Really fantastic machines . The owner, very kind and with a lot of knowledge. 100 % recommended.

This is one of the best and most unique museums I have visited in Paris . It is comprised of the best items from a private collection of phonographs and their precursors. Starting from an Edison tin foil(!) dictation machine and going forward to the 45 era and jukeboxes ( with maybe an 8 track or two), the museum has an incredibly thorough array of sound machines. They are beautiful to look at, but the truly captivating aspect is that they all work. And you will probably get close to a private tour from the owner/collector, Aro, who is an absolute font of information. Paris has so many great museums with works of great beauty, but most are static experiences. At this museum the works speak to you exactly in the way they did 100 years ago to those audiences. Do not miss this little museum.

What an extraordinary collection. Jalal is an amazing host and interpreter of his collection. Best early phonograph experience ever- he’ll play them all for you! Do not pass up the chance to visit!
