Beginning in 1926, the International Piano Company Limited, Listowel, Ontario sold the Ultra-phonic International phonograph through its agent, the Ontario Piano and Music Company Limited, 312 Bank Street, Ottawa, Ontario. The manufacturer of the phonograph is unknown although it may well have been a company such as The George McLagan Furniture Co., Limited in Stratford, Ontario.

The Ontario Piano and Music Company Limited used the same illustration to advertise its Golden-Throated International phonograph. For the full story of the International Piano Company and the Ontario Piano Company, and their sad demise, see Golden-Throated International page.

In May, 1926, ads began to appear in Winnipeg newspapers for the "Ultra-phonic" reproducer which could be used to modernize any phonograph. In December, 1926, the Compo Company Limited, Lachine, Quebec, began advertising the "Ultra" reproducer, a name which quickly changed to "Ultra (phonic)" or "Ultra-phonic" in January, 1927. The Ultra-phonic reproducer and the Ultra-phonic phonograph are unrelated products which clearly illustrate how new, in-fashion terms got picked up and used by multiple companies.
