Default 16" discs - need player




Are there any turntables that could possibly play a 16" disc that are
not rare and/or expensive?



** Of course it is possible - I could easily play one on my turntable.


Even if they coulnd't play at the right
speed or sound great or even reach the entire length of the disc, I
would still be happy.



** Most 16 inch discs are 33.3 rpm so play on a standard 12 inch hi-fi
turntable table - with 2 inchs of overhang.

What you have to find is a turntable / arm combination where the arm's base
is spaced away from the platter by at least 2 inches - not uncommon at
all with the better quality arms made.
