aussievintage Posted December 14, 2022 Share Posted December 14, 2022 You don't see many of them. They look like they are from the early 50s. Interesting that this Aussie company dabbled in releasing records for a while. I wonder how many they released? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
audiofeline Posted December 15, 2022 Share Posted December 15, 2022 I've come across a few of them in opshops, usually with the red+gold label. I love the kangaroo holding the AWA logo. Never bought them as the music doesn't interest me. It looks like it was licensed re-releases of Telefunken material. What's the sound quality like?

Is the one in your picture a 78? I have some of them too. The one in my picture is a 33 rpm on vinyl. Sound quality is quite good - on par with most 50s mono, not as good as Decca ffrr from the same period. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
audiofeline Posted December 15, 2022 Share Posted December 15, 2022 I'm not sure if the pic is a 78, I just looked for the label design I've seen a lot. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Blues Posted December 15, 2022 Share Posted December 15, 2022 I've got some AWA Radiola and AWA Radiola Telefunken records. Discogs list about 50 releases for each label. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Blues Posted December 15, 2022 Share Posted December 15, 2022 (edited) The first pic is a 12 inch and the second is a 10 inch. I think the red labels are 7 inch Edited December 15, 2022 by The Blues Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
