All audio disks that are not vinyl Lp or 45 rpm cannot be played back on a "standard" turntable. You need a large selection of different size and shape styli. You need a tone arm that can be adjusted in all sorts of "non-standard" positions. You need a turntable that is capable of variable speeds. And last but not least you need a phono pre-amp to recreate a wide variety of playback curves (Eq). Of course if you have experiance restoring and remastering "non-standard" discs, it couldn't hurt. So that's what you need. If you don't have that you risk damaging the disks and getting, not the best possible sound out of them.
