Conclusion/Review:
Nice model recordplayer (what you'd expect from Dual). Thing is; it is jus a tad sensitive, especially with all te auto-features it provides (we think it needs some lub to make them run a 100% smooth and consistent again). The spin and sound on the other hand are really steady and straight forward. A nice player to run when you want to play vinyl and not be operating the player like a DJ :)
