Acoustic records tends to differ a lot in speed.
That means that one need to use a turntable with variable speed , a Lenco L75 or similar is preferable. An equalizer will help a lot as 78's, especially the acoustic recordings have a quite limited range of frequency. Using an equalizer there are great opportunities to get rid of the information on the record that's just crackles and surface noise. There are also possibilities to edit the recorded music in a computer. Some products for this purpose are available on the market.
