    it says “record adapter” right on the thing

      I’m still confused. What does it adapt? Does the hole size of LPs differ?

      • mrlee@lemmy.world ⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

        7“ singles usually have a bigger hole where the adapter is needed

    That’s not really all that special or unique. There are lots of things that many people would instantly recognize that others would have never seen before.

    45/33 1/3 RPM records might be well within your wheelhouse, but would you recognize a 78 RPM record, or an Edison wax cylinder at first glance? How about the image below?

      Fr thought the other thing was a beyblade part until you reminded me what beyblades looked like.

    …all my turntables have included 45RPM adapters for the spindle; never needed anything separate for the records…

    …i have a 5" adapter ring for 3" compact discs, though: that has seen legitimate use in all my slot-loading players, although the older drawer players always included detents for smaller discs…

    It literally says what it is right on it lol

    It’s a record adapter.

      Still doesn’t explain if you don’t have at least some knowledge of it

      • Kolanaki@pawb.social ⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

        I’m just wondering how it works. I know there are different sizes, and thus different speeds that the record needs to spin at but all the turntables I’ve ever used had a switch for the two most common sizes. I have to assume this is for slowing/speeding up how fast it turns on a table without an adjustable speed, but I can’t quite intuit how that would work.
