    Smashing repairs Trevor :-D Good old metal decks, Just a well thought out machine. The function gear/track is so simple. No crashing computer to become annoying.

    Looks like the main bearing support is plastic though? Unfortunately, Dual's best turntable in terms of build quality was the 1019, everything that came later was kinda compromised for the sake of cost reduction.

    Hi Trevor .. My mother had a heavy bicycle from before the second WW............we still used it until the eighties and some years before we did a complete overhaul..........then she said : " Better than new..........! " When I saw your dedicated work , this memory came back to me ....... Thanks for the upload and the very nice job !

    Well, the DUAL Record Players own a special retro nostalgia by themselves. They reflect the Zeitgeist of late 60s and 70s. I grew up in an audiophile household with Lenco TT & ADC/ELAC, UHER R2R and SABA Telewatt; and therefore I stayed away from such kind of consumer HiFi for ordinary people 😁

    Amazing technology- watching the 70s factory putting them together would be interesting

    Do you work on Kenwood white marble/resin units? I have three that need work.

    At 2:26:28 in the video you stat that you removed the aluminum plate, does it just slide off the two shafts after removal of the clips and the shield, mine is hanging up on the larger shaft with the brass bearing with a rubber ring and the spring wrapped around it and I think it is frozen to the brass insert. Those two should be free from one another I believe because when in the video you switch between single and stacked records it goes in and out mine does not. I don't want to pry on it and break something , can you explain the removal process of the plate please the rest of the video is great thanks

    Those older cartridges probably track at more like 2 grams.

    Older cartridges were much higher compliance than the modern stuff... I have an Ortofon cartridge from the 1970s that tracks perfectly at 1g. Of course, you need a good tonearm with perfect bearings to achieve such a result.
