Additional information
Dual CS 505-4: This turntable is a modern iteration of the classic Dual CS 505 series, known for its suspended sub-chassis that isolates the turntable from external vibrations. It features a semi-automatic design, where the arm lifts the cartridge off the record at the end of a side and switches off the motor. It supports 33.3 and 45rpm speeds and includes a subtle speed adjustment option. The Ortofon OM10 moving magnet cartridge is included. While the build quality is good, it may not be as impressive as it was at its original price point in the past. The turntable received a 4 out of 5 rating in a review from What Hi-Fi?.
