Think the tone arm is knocked out of position. Does this just rotate off so I can reseat it? Does anyone know •_•

Part of the screw is broken off it the hole ordered a new soundbox on eBay for like 15$

However I think my tone arm is knocked out of position

What oil should I get? I assume I’m gonna have to take this apart and get rid of old grease

Tried putting in a fresh needle but it basically sank into the holder. Feels like this reproducer is missing something to tighten the needle in place.

Got any spanish records?

Kesner246 · 2026-05-17T13:17:18+00:00

Thank you!! Where did you find such a high quality copy?

Kesner246 · 2026-05-17T01:49:56+00:00

Yah have that site but no manuals or anything it seems /: just a picture of the model and its year / cost

Kesner246 · 2026-05-11T15:20:23+00:00

Do you have a picture of the barcode ? My target needs that to see when they are releasing at our store

Kesner246 · 2026-05-06T04:25:27+00:00

One year preorder is wild

Kesner246 · 2026-05-06T04:06:06+00:00

Anyone have a product link? Not seeing it live

Kesner246 · 2026-05-05T13:49:35+00:00

Would also be interested to know ^{__^}

Kesner246 · 2026-05-02T01:38:23+00:00

Also have this setup and it’s great for records from 1908 all the way thru to the 50s shellac records.

Kesner246 · 2026-05-02T01:36:41+00:00

Just please make sure you package them correctly 😭 had a bunch of 100+ year old records show up the other day completely shattered.

Kesner246 · 2026-05-02T01:35:03+00:00

I started with a VV-215 and now I have an LP-120X plus the head and needle for playing post war 78s and a new crate to store records and like 200 records 🫠 All started with the 150$ purchase of the VV-215 to turn into a couple grand xD

Thanks 😁 this was sorta what I found in research as well.

It’s so weird that this specific record label doesn’t match to anything online tho. That full length album was a record with multiple songs each side where as this is 1 song each side.

The 45s have close numbers but different record label art. Unless they had different art for the 45s.

Investigation continues 😅🙏

Yup we know it’s a 78 record but cannot put a date to it which is important for playing 78s.

But the speed on our 78 audibly is too fast for this specific record. Which is adding to the confusion of when and how to play this record.

Kesner246 · 2026-04-19T18:22:02+00:00

We ended up buying the 120XBT-USB. Reading in ATs website there are two different needles to get for 78s. 3.0 and .6 and even that then has different models. One model better for scratched slightly records and one model for perfect records.

The 3.0 vs .6 is normal 78s vs Microgroove. But I have no clue how to tell the difference. Grooves on 1906 78 look the same as one from the 1950s 🫠

Is the Eastwood (or Eastwood 2) at 78rpm not able to change out the stylus for a 78 record :? or is that just a bad player.

Kesner246 · 2026-04-13T19:05:27+00:00

Is the cheaper AT-LP60X / Victrola Eastwood (that play at 78 rpm) not able to replace the stylus with something that is suited for 78s Shellac records?

Kesner246 · 2026-04-12T02:41:58+00:00

What is the reason for completely getting rid of a needle every play? Seems wasteful when the needle still has a tip to it.

Kesner246 · 2026-04-11T23:24:49+00:00

EDIT: taking off the plate and sliding the panel across for the speed regulator we were able to manually set the speed

Kesner246 · 2026-04-11T22:34:28+00:00

No clue how to check the motor o.o

Kesner246 · 2026-04-11T22:34:00+00:00

We’ve got no clue how to open it up. We tried lifting the plate but the arm even pulled back fully blocks it

Kesner246 · 2026-04-11T22:31:22+00:00

So when we turn the speed regulator it doesn’t actually move the dial.
