Re: [ARSCLIST] turntables with 78rpm capability

I forgot about them.  The top of the line unit looks really serious.
I'm 99% sure that their 16" (10" effective length) Transcribe tonearm is 
sourced from Jelco in Japan and is similar to the MMT tonearms sold in 
the '80s and '90s.  If that's the case, it's a well made arm.
