Actually, those Magnavox Micromatic record changers were among some of the better models as far as standard consumer grade console record changers go. I had an early '60's Magnavox B&W combo with a similar changer and I used to play records from the '50's-'70's on it all the time. The same records still play fine on a more advanced system with a magnetic cartridge. I wouldn't play any high dollar audiophile pressings on one of these (heck, don't even own any); but, I don't think you'll ruin your records on this changer, provided that it has a good needle and cartridge and the mechanics of the changer work properly. I think these tracked at around 3 grams, as opposed to some other changers of the day that tracked at 8 to 10 grams and maybe more.
