[QUOTE="ludo, post: 69304, member: 691"] If there is a turntable that plays 78s also... It's partly just an oddity, but there is fine music on shellac. Can be real time-machine stuff and not usually an expensive endeavour. I hope that amp still works. If JAN 55 means what I think it does it would be quite something if you can switch it on with impunity. Valve fundi + variac might be a good start? I recall firing up a mains regulator with a broomstick on the power switch. Caps had "1964" on them. It worked well enough, which was a great relief. PS. You might have to add an output tube.
