AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Very nice refurbished
505
It has a very good sounding Ortofon stylus

RIFA capacitors are replaced.

All functions works.
Some signs of use on top.

Both RPMs are perfect.
Record stops at the end

Description:

Vibrations can be transmitted to the record player with each step, and sound energy from the loudspeakers can be fed back acoustically to the record player through the air or through a piece of furniture.

To minimise these unwanted effects, the Dual CS 505 uses a floating chassis.

In the Dual 505, a great deal of technical expertise has been applied to acoustically decouple the entire turntable drive unit from the remainder of the casing.

As a result, external interference is filtered out so effectively that it no longer has any audible effect on the music.

The anti-resonance mat used on the CS 505 filters and counteracts resonances which can be transmitted through the record player to the record.


SPECS:

Drive: Dual 16-pole SM 100-1 synchronous motor with precision flat belt for flywheel drive
Starting time: 2 to 2.5s
Platter: 304mm, 0.9kg, non-magnetic, removable
Speeds: 33.33 and 45rpm
Pitch control: 6%
Wow and flutter: 0.05% WRMS
Rumble: 69dB
Tonearm: distortion free ultra low mass aluminium tubular tonearm in 4 point tip bearing

Review

An impressive, easy to use and fuss free turntable system with a number of useful facilities - £80 HiFi Choice 1983

Slightly lacking in balls, but compensates with a consistently unmuddled presentation and good stereo focus perspectives - £170 (CS-505-4) HiFI Choice 1992

Carefully insured shipped.
