Maple Ridge is a suburb of Vancouver, on the north side of the Fraser River.

NOS - $175 Canadian – about $128 US

Oh boy! Gotta get me one of these. I wonder if it destroys 78s, too.

They are extremely cool, and work amazingly well. 33rpm only, and a light tracking force. The rubber rollers won’t hurt an LP. These days most people are actually sort of vague about how records even work, so getting the sound out of a van driving on it tends to blow their minds completely.

Not sure about that price, though.

They from the 1970s are fun and do not hurt anything. But are 33 ⅓ only.

I’m not sure that the stylus won’t destroy a record. And then there is the issue of the correct speed since the linear speed should really vary as the van gets closer to the center of the record.
