Guy,
I do not know. In my past I made an adapter to my Micro motor to play 78s and used contemporary 78 cartridge and 282 arm and off the shelf phonocorector. I would not call this setup as something that was good but it gave me some opportunities to play with 78s. Although I clearly recognized the huge advantages of 78s but to make it to play right it requires a lot of work and I juts did not go there. So, I would be not defiantly be the person to talk about it. I know Steve the Farmer, who sometimes pop up at this site plays his thousands 78s. I would not say that he went to 78s all the way as it could be, rather he made a comfortably-minimalist setup. However, when I visited him and was listening the 1928 Weingartner’s Beethoven 9th then even in context of the minimum things that Steve did it was still very nice.
