Bad sound (scratch on old 78rpm) and speakers...

2 replies

Hello all

Maybe my question is not relevant but I would like to know if "bad sound", due to old 78rpm reading and despite an adequate cartridge special for shellac records but some of them are 70 years old so normal, could damage my speakers ?

Thanks

Franck

As I do not know it those scratch sounds could hasrard my speakers I connected my Beolit15 to headphone it is more than enough as it is mono anyway. The sound is pretty good in any case.
