HOME DISC RECORDING

As can be seen, these home disc recorders were also designed to play records. West Tech Services can rebuild the phono cartridge and the cutter head for recording, AND service the entire unit.

More technical information in regard to cutting, disc size, speed to record, etc., along with many examples of the discs used, memorabilia, a glossary, and more may be found by clicking here.
