AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
The Dual CS 450 is a reliable, semi-automatic string-powered record player that was produced between 1988 and 1993 in Germany. The model is known as a solid entry-level model within the hi-fi class, equipped with an automatic turn-off and arm return at the end of the plate.
Drive: Belt drive with an electronically controlled DC motor.
Rpm: 33 1/3 and 45 RPM (manually switchable via a switch).
Turntable: 304 mm cast aluminum.
Tonearm: Straight, vibration-damped ULM tonearm (Ultra Low Mass).
Standard element: Dual DMS 251E (or DN 249E depending on the exact sub-version).
Housing: Floating chassis mounted in a wooden console with anti-resonance foot.
Dimensions: 440 x 119 x 360 mm.
Weight: Approximately 5.6 kg.
Characteristics & Performance
The CS 450 is the semi-automatic brother of the legendary fully automatic CS 455. Thanks to the low wow and flutter values (0.04% WRMS), the player delivers a very stable and quiet display. Although purists don't include it among the absolute top models Dual made in the 70s, the CS 450 offers an excellent balance between simplicity and hi-fi quality.
Very nice sounding popular turntable from Dual.
It fully works and sounds very good.
New belt and cardridge with stylus is installed
Both RPMs are steady and correct.
New gold rca plugs
Contacts cleaned
Motor oiled
Arm goes back to the rest and the platter stops.
Player is in very good condition, but the dustcover has some tiny scratches and little corner damage on a few places.
Spring-loaded sub-chassis
Carefully insured shipped
Seller's Story
