[78-L] Dumb Question du jour

[Michael Biel]

Most cylinders are 160 RPM, but early brown wax were 122 then 144.  All
Blue Amberols -- which is the only thing you can play on an Amberola 50
-- are 160 rpm.

Here it is - How many rpm for a cylinder player?  For some reason, I
always thought it was 78 rpm, but I guess I'm wrong.  My new Amberola 50
gets about 171 rpm and that is too slow, I think.
