In the beginning of gramophone discs they did not even have microphones. Instead they had a mechanical device that cut the audio into a zinc disc. At that time you had to play as loud as possible, with singers standing right in front of the device to get something decent out of it. But even with the most modern recording equipment, replaying on a gramophone has so little dynamic potential that you cannot do much.
