I have searched long and wide trying to find someone who made reprduction Kalamazoo Duplex rubber phonograph elbows and it appears no one does. Looking around in Hardware stores and other places, I found that the "Track Auto" car parts chain has heater reinforced water heater rubber piping with two 45 degree bends that fits the reproducer and almost fits inside of the two duplex horns. Price $9.95. Paper label on hose says ]"Molded Heater Hose, Made in USA, 304357, 304357. (Must be part number) Since there are two bends in the hose you can get both elbows out of the pipe. You will have to put something on the outside as they fit to loosely inside of the horns but fit nicely on the Duplex reproducer. If anyone knows of someone who makes reproduction elbows that look like the real thing let me know. I currently have both original rubber elbows but they are totally dried out and cannot be used. Just an FYI and hope someone else can use this information
