Possibly for new owners of the C-1 and C-2 Edison radio/phonographs, which were capable of playing both lateral and vertical records by just flipping the stylus? -- one less step for new Edison owners to consider? --
And how late are we talking on Diamond Discs being at 78? The Goldman Band discs in the 52630s play at pitch at 80? I have 52650,a Frankie Marvin disc, but I haven't played it in a long time -- might check it -- Philip ________________________________________ From: phono-l-boun...@oldcrank.org [phono-l-boun...@oldcrank.org] On Behalf Of Bill Taney [b...@taney.com] Sent: Wednesday, March 16, 2011 9:33 AM To: phonol...@yahoogroups.com; Phono-l Subject: Re: [Phono-L] [phonolist] 5700 series Blue Amberols Why did they record the final diamond disc's at 78RPM? Seems rather odd decision since existing owners would have to adjust the speed of their machines for these records then adjust back for any of the previous 15 yr + worth of records.

Has anyone heard them played with the Diamond D? I recently rebuilt one with a new stylus, the diaphragm was still good. Even without the extra weight it sounds better so I assume the final Diamond C with the weight from the same casting as the Diamond D also sounds better. I played an acoustic dub of an electrically recorded DD and there is a difference. Ron, the final DD records were recorded at 78 rpm so what was done when they were dubbed to BA's?
