He moved to New York and lived on a temporary job, such as going to the paper route and cleaning the bottle. he studied physics at night at the Cooper Union Institute. After some time working on stable livery, he became interested in new audio technology from phone and record, and found a telephone transmitter to repair (one of the first microphones).

Patents are acquired by Bell Telephone Company. However, on February 27, 1901 the Court, when appealed to the United States Court stated that his patent was nullified. In 1877 Berliner then moved to Boston and worked for Bell Telephone until 1883, when he returned to Washington and proved himself to be a private researcher.

The discovery of a gramophone

In 1886 Berliner started experimenting with sound recording methods. He patented the "gramophon" in 1887. The first gramophon was recorded using a horizontal modulation sound on the cylinder coated with low resistance material such as black light, then fixed with varnish and then copied by photoengraving on metal playback cylinders. This is similar to the method used by Edison machines. 

In 1888 Berliner found a simple way to record sound by using a disc. Within a few years he has successfully marketed technology for enterprise toys. However, he hopes to develop the devices more than a mere toy.

In 1827, Sir Charles Wheatstone had developed a microphone. He was the first person to create a "phrase microphone." Further, in 1876, Emile Berliner created the first microphone used as a voice-transmitter. The first commercial microphone was the first carbon microphone discovered in October 1876 by Thomas Alfa Edison. , David Edward Hughes also took part in the development of the carbon microphones. The carbon microphones were under development until the 1920s.
