Description from the seller
(rare collectible item)
Dual CV-1400 Vintage German Integrated Amplifier
For sale is a beautiful Dual CV-1400 integrated stereo amplifier, manufactured in Germany during the golden age of hi-fi audio.
Built between 1978 and 1981, the CV-1400 combines classic German engineering, a powerful dual-channel amplifier section, an excellent phono stage for vinyl enthusiasts, and a robust 12.7 kg construction designed to last for decades.
Known for its warm, detailed sound and outstanding reliability, the CV-1400 remains one of the most desirable vintage amplifiers produced by Dual during the late 1970s.
The Dual CV-1400 is relatively uncommon today because:
It was produced for only a few years.
Most Dual collectors focus on turntables, making surviving amplifiers less common.
Many examples remained in Germany and never reached international markets.
Its heavy construction means many units were discarded rather than shipped when faults developed.
Vintage audio enthusiasts actively seek restored examples.
Is considerably harder to find than mainstream amplifiers from Pioneer, Kenwood, or Technics of the same period.
Features:
Made in Germany
2 × 50 W RMS into 4 Ω
High-quality MM phono input
Microphone input
Tape monitor function
Mono/Stereo switching
Presence boost control
Heavy-duty 12.7 kg construction
Classic brushed-aluminum styling
No remote control (original design)
Collector's Rarity: ★★★★★★★★☆☆ (8/10)
The Dual CV-1400 is significantly less common than most Japanese amplifiers from the same era and is highly appreciated by collectors of German hi-fi equipment. Well-preserved examples are becoming increasingly difficult to find, especially in original cosmetic condition.
A superb choice for vintage audio enthusiasts seeking authentic late-1970s German sound quality and engineering excellence.
