Aeolian Voclion needles

Post by SCD53 »

I got the Graduola (volume control) working on the machine and wondering what type of needles should I buy. I see they offer loud medium and soft tone needles.
I think I can use loud needles and just turn volume down?

Thanks Steve

The louder the needle, the more likely it is to wear the record. I use soft or extra soft indoors, and only use loud when playing portables outdoors.
