I just got my single in the mail, and my turntable has no option for a 10" setting :-(

    All you need is the correct RPM.

    There's no 10" setting on turntables.

    So 78 RPM? Looks like I'm still out of luck, just 45 and 33 on my player.

    That's just the speed. Has nothing to do with the size of the record. I have 10" that are played at both 33 and 45 rpm

    In fairness, I still haven't figured out how to do it on my player either. I have a Technics SL-Q5 with an automatic arm that runs on a track under a case cover. It automatically senses 7" and 12", can't get it to play 10". And before anyone slams my player, it was a hand-me-down, and I'd like to buy a nicer turntable someday.

    Maybe it was a stupid question to most, but I didn't know the answer to it. Excuse the hell out of me. I won't bother with my n00b questions around here anymore.

    on that SL-Q5 try this: cut a fairly thin cardboard spacer (like a manila mailing envelope; that tricks the Record Size detection lever) fashioned into a 12" disk that you place under the 10"er you want to play. Press Start and HOLD until the tonearm moves over the lead in groove.
