What does Size 17/30 mean on my record player?
My boyfriend bought me a turntable so i can play my records. I'm sort of a n00b at this..but what does size selection mean? I tried on both 17 and 30 but didn't notice any difference. This doesn't have anything to do with the 33.5 and 45 RPM does it? Thanks in advance.
Ohh. that makes sense. I always knew that 33.5rpm's are 12 inches and 45's are 7 inches, but it didnt occur to me the sizes are in cm...12 in = 30 cm, and 7in=17cm. Thanks a bunch!
dont know.. sorry
I think it means the size of the disc u are playing on it. It sets it up so the mechanism will set the stylus thing down at the beginning edge of the size of disc u are planning on using.
They made those vinyl discs in various sizes so 17cm and 30cm are probably the most common sizes.
