Hi!

 

Aybody recommend/comment on this turntable?

 

Got a local seller - I'm in the market for my first TT... Like the looks, it is said to be in perfect condition. 

 

Is this a good player - or should I go for something newer?

 

thanks

 I've read it's one of the best turntable that Dual made in that time period.  If the price is good, I would get it.  It's a very good turntable and can compete beyond many entry level turntables in newer market.

Thanks for the advice. I got a Dual CS5000 instead. It's late 80's. Tried it on a 150.000 dollar rig, it sounded quite good, actually, but the the sellers 35.000 dollar TT was better by a margin.  Maybe I'll write a review. I looks good:
