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?

You should get a 78 RPM stylus. If they make a 78 RPM stylus for your present cartridge that will do the trick. Or just get an Ortofon OM-3E cartridge for $40 and another $40 for the 78 stylus.
There are always lots of decent used Dual turntables on eBay that play 78s (not all models) for not much $$$.
Oh, I see!! I agree 100%. I thought you guys just wanted to play them on something decent that would not damage them.
