78's require a different cartridge and vastly different TRACKING FORCE/WEIGHT. Be careful not to damage your records using improper equipment and settings.

Most of mine are old, too, and they play fine. I suppose that some home-recorded CDs might not play, but I have only played commercially-recorded ones.

Yes according to the manual.I don't have any 78's myself.Again this is a nice little player no great stero.But I like it for what it is.

It plays 78's, 45's (has an adapter), and 33 1/3 records - one at a time. Very nicely too! Also has a stereo AM/FM radio.

Please refer to the answer below by "NoMoneyG". Since this Danby Model does in fact come with a "Turntable" I would assume that it does play records as well. Hopefully, it can play 78s and 45s, along with the 33&1/3 LP Record Albums.That would be an exciting feature because I enjoy listening to music while I am cooking !What an awesome feature to be included in a microwave oven !

No. I do not think this would help. I used this sound card in that capacity. I later abandoned it and went back to the on board sound card. I could not tell a difference. You are better off spending money on the cartridge and stylus in the turntable.

I didn´t tryed, but I think that is not recomended because 78s were manufactured with another material, and maybe will damage the needle that comes with the turntable. I would use 1 needle for 78s and another for 33s.

it plays standard vinyl records & 45's. I'm not sure about 7" or 10" records.Standard LP's are about 12".

I just looked at the manual. It plays the "Roland/Boss proprietary format" (a bunch of tracks that come with the unit & new ones you can download, free I think), MP3 and WAV. I know by experience it doesn't play Windows Media, so I just rip from a CD or snag a WAV from the internet. Oh if you're playing single coils like me you're going to have a lot of hum but it's okay, it's helped me learn a lot but it is expensive.

Yes it plays modern records with no problems. I also play my old 33 1/3 and my old 45's. I am very happy with this purchase.

No. This turntable does not have a 78 rpm setting. There are similar models, such as the Audio-Technica ATLP120USB that plays 78's and has USB output to connect to your computer. Software and a built-in preamp are included. You should use a cartridge that allows changing the stylus with one intended for the wider groove of a 78, usually a 2.5 or 3 mil spherical diamond tip. This will insure reduced surface noise and distortion.

Jensen does not make a stylus for 78's. you have to buy it as a generic from another company. and its not easy to find. i would put a link here to the only place i found that sells a compatible 3 mil stylus, but i dont think links are allowed. google search it with the jensen model number "jta 230" and with a little luck you will find one that sells a compatible stylus. a regular stylus is too narrow, sits too deep in the groove, and bounces back and forth (although you cant visually see it), causing extra noise, and damage to your 78s.

It will work with a MM input. You will just have to turn the volume up a little higher than you have been to make up for the slightly lower output of the cartridge. I have two turntables both with DL-110. One goes through a MC input which has an amplifier to make up for the lesser output. The other goes into a MM input. I increase the volume slightly on this one and it sounds great.

No, it will play any vinyl. Old or new. Vinyl is vinyl. The player can't tell the difference.

There is a way to record at 45 rpm and speed it up with software. I don't know the details, but did read that it can be done, although you need a 78 stylus (which is not included) for playing 78's.

This cratridge is standard and it will most tone arms. I would not recomment his cratridge for playing 78s.

Does play 45s just find, the jewel at the end of stylus needs to be bigger to work well with 78s.
