The vintage Dual CS 40 Idler Drive Turntable, equipped with the 1229 3-Speed Turntable and CK 21 Plinth, stands out for its exceptional design and performance. The synchronous continuous-pole motor, featuring radial elastic suspension, ensures stable and precise rotation. The non-magnetic, dynamically balanced platter weighing 3.1kg contributes to smooth playback at speeds of 33.33, 45, and 78rpm. A notable feature is the 6% pitch control variation, providing users with flexibility in audio adjustments. With a speed accuracy deviation of +-0.06%, the turntable delivers accurate and reliable performance. The extra-long, torsionally rigid metal tonearm, suspended in a 4-point gimbal, and the removable cartridge holder accepting cartridges from 1 to 12g showcase the meticulous engineering of this vintage turntable. The inclusion of the sliding dust cover CH 21 adds protection and convenience. Allowing for operation of the turntable while the dustcove remains closed. The turntable is in great used condition. Because the turntable is almost 50 years old there are some damages. The Dustcover has been damaged and repaired in the past. All moving parts of the dustcover work as they should. The plinth shows some light usagemarks and scracthes, nothing too crazy. The 1229 turntable works perfect and plays very stable.Player is equiped with Shure M95 Element Specifications:Drive: synchronous continuous-pole motor with radial elastic suspensionPlatter: non-magnetic, dynamically balanced, weighing 3,1kgSpeeds: 33.33, 45 and 78rpmPitch control variation: 6%Speed accuracy deviation: +-0.06%Signal to noise ratio: -63dB weightedTonearm: extra-long, torsionally rigid metal arm, in 4-point gimbal suspension, with skeletal head designCartridge holder: removable, accepts all 1/2 cartridges from 1 to12gDimensions : 420 x 192 x 372 mm Voltage: 220VWeight : 10.4 kg Working condition: Fully Working (See pictures for the cosmetic condition of this lot)Missing or damages: medium Usage Marks -We ship worldwide.We offer combine shipping (EU 30KG max, NON EU 20KG max) for all our listings, ask us for details Please note: ??Whenever an item exceeds the weight noted above.
