    Playing both 33/45 and 78 on a Dual 1019?

    Hi, I recently found a couple of nice 78 records which got me wondering if I could improve my set-up a bit. It’s “coals to Newcastle” to mention here, but even apart from the sound, there’s a charm to playing records that transcends anything a cd can offer, let alone Spotify or what have you...

    I have a JVC turntable model L-A31 with a Shure RXT5 cartridge. I want to play a 1944 78 rpm record but need a 78 rpm cartridge. I've found nothing in the forum specifically about that.

    Stanton 500 for 78 - correct one?

    Hello, So I was finally able to get an old Garrard AT6mii running and making music, and I'd like to set it up as a 78 deck because I don't have one yet. After looking at options, briefly thinking about ditching the whole project, then some impulsivity, I bought a "nos" Stanton 500 with a gold...

    Recording 78's onto CD and need advice

    My father is downsizing and asked that I copy some of his 78's onto CD for him. I have considered using my computer, then started looking at used CD-RW units. I plan to use my Dual 1229Q turntable with a 78 cartridge, and my McIntosh C-20 preamp which has the settings for various labels. But I...
