Additional information
The Dual 1010 is an idler wheel drive turntable designed for both single play and changer operation. It features a quartz-locked direct drive mechanism that allows for precise speed control, supporting playback at 33.3, 45, and 78 RPM. This makes it compatible with a wide range of vinyl records.
The turntable is known for its solid build quality and is often considered a collectible item among audiophiles. However, servicing it can be challenging due to the difficulty in finding replacement parts. Common issues include problems with the power switch and motor not turning off, which can often be resolved by replacing a faulty capacitor inside the turntable.
