Over the last year I've picked up, amybe, 1000 78s, and I have yet to play a single one. Well, I'm picking up a Dual 1229 tonight (has 78 speed unlike my 2 Thornes tables) and need advice on 78 RPM playback. I know I need a 78-specific cart., but what else? Is there a nice, inexpensive pre that's specific to 78s that somebody can recommend? I see a number out there, but I rally don't know what's best for me (or what I'm really looking for.)

Also, I just found out I have about 50 Edison Diamond Discs . Unlike normal records that modulate side-to-side, these record up and down.....C
