The CS 429 is a fully automatic turntable for ultimate convenience. The tonearm moves autonomously at the touch of a button. Simply place the record on the platter and press the start button.

All functions are fully automatic or manual, so you can drop the needle yourself whenever you like.

Adjustable tonearm

Adjustable tonearm

The adjustable tonearm allows the use of different cartridges, with individual settings for tracking force and antiskating. The CS 429 comes equipped with an Ortofon 2M Red cartridge.

The statically balanced aluminum tonearm uses ball bearings and accurate spring-loaded anti-skating, with a removable headshell.

Quiet by design

Quiet by design

Vibration dampers in the housing decouple the tonearm and platter from external vibrations. Thanks to a precise optical speed control at the motor, the CS 429 also impresses in terms of sound. Experience perfect music enjoyment with Dual.

A precision-cut belt keeps wow and flutter low, and elastomer vibration absorbers inside the feet isolate the turntable from the surface it sits on.
