Can anyone tell me how to identify the Cheney reproducer/adaptor used to play edison style records? My player (photos in another post) came with everything (reproducer box, two small boxes each containing a different style needle) but no spare reproducer, and I have been looking, but unsure what it looks like. I have seen two different styles on some other websites, one where the bayonet style attachment point comes straight out the back of the reproducer, and another where the attachment point takes a 90 degree turn. I'm pretty sure the 90 degree one is what I'm looking for, but not sure enough to buy one. Any help is appreciated.

Yup, you want the one that takes a 90 degree turn.

Thanks Sean, that's what I was thinking, but it's nice to get some confirmation before spending the cash.
