Can I use the same cartridge for 78rpm?


I've been offered for a nice and mint collection of 78rpm's.
I can get 78 pooley for my motor but should I change a cartridge?

Marakanetz, purchase 78 RPM cart and stylus from Shure or Stanton. Shure has dedicated model, but I use the Shure M-44E with N-44-3(green) 78 needle and found it to be the best(no longer in production). Use an old Dual turntable (the older 1000 or 1200 IDLER series only. Modify the base with some Dynamat and you will hear them at their best. Never quite liked the sound with a belt drive on 78s much.......Frank
