We had,
an old HMV SE tube with N78..
It had an auto loader trouble is if you stacked more than about 4 it would drop two onto the platter and move the arm about an inch into the record..
If the hole was worn it might drop a 78 onto the arm on the playing record and stuff the stylus..
Yes great days.. I remember the coversation with my dad about an LP that had stereophonic recording written on it ..so we took a chance and bought it ..well our record player was mono you know...
78 at its best...

MP3 is inferior to both, though.
Fun fact; any vinyl records cut on a new machine after about 1978 passed the signal to be cut through a CD quality digital delay while the cutter head adjusted the space between adjacent grooves based on their amplitude to obtain the greatest space efficiency.
Argument rendered invalid.

I've got several guinea pigs. It's a lemon agouti. Is your's a cover from a psychedelic rock album 
?
FLAC is excellent, especially 96KHz 24 bit FLAC (although almost everyone cannot tell the difference). But of course you can't match the 'warm analogue sound' of a 78rpm shellac record (preferably with incorrect equalisation and a crystal pickup)...
Chris, performance is measured mainly in terms of...

Chris, performance is measured mainly in terms of...
- Distortion Vinyl (at best) = 0.1%, CD = 0%
- Frequency response Vinyl (at best) = 20Hz - 25KHz, CD = (practically) 0-22KHz
- CD = Flat frequency response, Vinyl's frequency response is as flat as gravel...
- And of course SN ratio Vinyl (at best) = 60dB CD = 90dB

Haha, radiograms were not the best music reproducers with their 'no feedback class a' output stage. Was it it the black and silver RCA victor 'new orthophonic high fidelity' label? I have Island in the Sun/Coconut Woman by Belafonte that I should upload at some point...
Also, I sometimes listen to 78rpm discs because they can sound better than the ultra muddy clinical clean insane noise reduction CD releases...

I'm always amused when I hear "There's something about the sound of vinyl that's so much better than digital..." - yeah, recording studios didn't have so many compressors daisy-chained together and set on "flatline" back then.
And nowadays "digital" means a downloaded file, as opposed to a Compact Disc...

Some CDs have good dynamic range, others unfortunately not. People who compare vinyl to 128kbps MP3 and say it sounds better are right, but MP3 isn't a high fidelity audio format.
Anyway, with more and more awareness about the Loudness War is meaning more and more recordings are being released with more dynamic range, as well as more and more vinyl being cut from the CD master means that the vinyl vs. CD argument will soon be over.

The Harry Belafonte song,
Was from way back when I was a child...The label was black and silver can't remember the name could be RCA... It was played with a crystal cartridge on a very old auto changer..SE tube using N78 output valve...Yes it was very poor but what memories..
I use Linn LP12....cyrus CD...meridian DAC...ipod. Tube output 6c33c OTL amp at the moment.. Its all good fun
