Default 16" discs - need player


"is" = Ignorant Stupid ******



Even if you find a 'table, you may still have some difficulties. If the
disk(s) were intended for radio play, they may be vertical recordings
(needle goes up and down instead of back and forth),



** Err - so modern stereo PUs cannot move vertically?

Surely you jest.


Not at all.



** Ok - so now I KNOW you are a complete ****wit.



A "modern" pickup stylus is not the right size to get the
best results from older "non-microgroove" recordings.



** The correct size stylus are available.

A separate issue from the OP's query.



And, a modern
"stereo" cartridge will pick up lateral rumble and other noises just
fine, although they contribute nothing good to the playback.



** When the L and R channels are wired *out of phase* for vertical
operation, all lateral ( ie mono) output is cancelled.

Basic Audio 101 - you dickhead.



And may play "inside out",



** The PU will not care about that either.


If you don't know it, you won't be able to play the disk, though. And
playing them on a changer will be difficult at best.



** What insane drivel.


which was actually a smart way to do things, since the
best frequency response and dynamic range were available at the end of
the piece, instead of the beginning.



** ********.



Sounds like you're not familiar with "radial equalization" as used in
disk cutting?



** ******** to all of your insane crapology.

Go drop dead.
