minus-squarefestus@lemmy.calinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up18·2 years agoIs the mom referring to a record player when she says “78 rpm?”
minus-squareFeathercrown@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up17·2 years agoYes, different records are intended to be played at different speeds but you can select a higher number for a slower record to play it faster
minus-squareCort@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up12·2 years agoYes. The normal speed would be 33.33 rpm unless it was a 45 rpm single which is less likely for classical. So classical music played at 2.3x speed.
