Why did they record the final diamond disc's at 78RPM? Seems rather odd
decision since existing owners would have to adjust the speed of their

Thanks for that information and the matrix number. Both my C-1 and C-2 have
the same speed control knobs. It should be an easy thing to dial back the
speed indicator on the marked backplate for those late DD and Needle Cuts

Right now my C-2 plays through an Edison radio using the same chassis
loudspeaker as the C-2 yes I had the restorer make the filter switchable
do not use it on Diamond Discs.Both of my C-2s have been restored
but do not play well. Can
From Ron D:
Bill, I assume they finally recorded DDs at 78 because it was the
same speed as needle cut Edison discs.
The change was made in Feb. 1929 when the old 79 Fifth Avenue Studios
were abandoned for new ones further
up 5th avenue. All DDs with matrix numbers of 19025 and above were
.

(btw) the pickup should track at five ounces.
