It's not as much an issue the turntable itself, but the stylus. I do play original 78's with a modern stylus, but it's too small to get all the music. If you use a conical stylus for the 78's, it will ruin the microgroove recording. You'd almost have to get two turntables (Actually every time I see a Garrard SL95B at a yard sale or thrift shop at I grab it, just to have parts to keep at least two or three operational. That's the nicest old turntable I've found that still has 4 speeds)) and dedicate one just for the vintage 78's, and one for microgroove (assuming it also has 4 speeds)
