Possibly because they were making thin Edison lateral disks at 78 at the same time?

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?
