Dual released new turntables, any thoughts ?

[jonathanbruce@me]

I received an alert a few days ago from AudioLlama on Youtube about Dual releasing new turntables.

Would love to know peoples thoughts on this.

In particular other peoples reviews on this.

I still am pondering over getting the Onkyo CP-1050 turntable for my main hifi anyway.

Buy a real Dual CS 505-4 (brand new) from Germany where they have never gone out of production ...

clicky

Right, there's Duals and there's Duals.

....and there are better ways to spend £330 if that is indeed your budget. Just why do you want a turntable??

As a long term user of Dual, on which I'm sure I've enjoyed more hours than my other decks put together, I saw the March magazine announce a trio of new models, headed by a MTR-75. It apparently has an Audio Technica MM cartridge and a USB output.

As chebby helpfully points out, the classic models still seem to be around. I'm at a loss to know why they're not imported.

I have been giving a massive load of vinyl to go through and keep any if I like them, but my old Sansui is showing its age. I have now updated my Hifi in my study which is where I tend to do most of my listening. The Sansui is downstairs on the Denon Hifi in the front music practice room.
