AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
The device is in very good condition!!! See photos!!! We haven’t used it often!!! The needle is original!!! Made in Germany!!! The CS 505-3 is regarded as one of the best in the legendary 505 series. Unlike its predecessors, it features a sturdier and heavier wooden chassis (cabinet), which improves the sound quality.
Year of manufacture: 1987 - 1990
Made in: Germany
Sound: It offers a very lively, warm, and balanced analog sound. At the time's magazines and forum users (such as Reddit) praised it for excellent detail reproduction. Subchassis: The motor and turntable platter are internally mounted and decoupled from the outer housing, making the turntable vibration-resistant (e.g., when someone nearby is walking on the floor). Characteristic Ultra Low Mass tonearm: The ultralight tonearm precisely traces the record. The 505-3 version features a standard 1/2" mount, enabling easy cartridge replacement. Comfortable semi-automatic: After playing a record, the turntable automatically lifts the tonearm and switches off the motor (no fiddling required to protect the needle from wear).
