Re: [ARSCLIST] Looking for 78 speed record player

[Angie Dickinson Mickle <angie@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Rod,

You might look at one of these two

Vestax Handy Trax Portable Turntable
and the
Numark PT01 Portable DJ Turntable

Both are 3 speed with speaker (not changers, though).  I bought the 
Numark for my daughter so she could listen to her LPs and 78s in her 
dorm.  Works great.
