I have three Expedit 5 X 5s, but I am not confident enough to recommend for 78s.

A typical 78 weighs 6.6 ounces, and a standard weight LP weighs 4.8 ounces. That doesn't seem like much, until you lift a box of 80 LPs or a box of 80 78s. The 78s feel like lifting concrete, even though the box of LPs is pretty heavy as well. I only use the Expedit shelves for LPs, and my 78s are in crates. I typically store 80 LPs per cubicle in the Expedits. Sorry I haven't tried 78s on the Expedits as yet.
