feb 1, 1877 - Alexander Graham Bell is credited with
invention of the first microphone.
Description:
Use in the telephone. As with Edison (above) there is some debate as to whether or not he actually invented the microphone,
commissioned it, or simply ‘borrowed’ someone else’s idea. The first loudspeaker designs are also patented at about this time.
