CHRISTMAS SALE 2024

Driven to Keep You Spinning Since 1907. Under the new ownership of Dr Josef Zellner, Dual launches an entirely new line of turntables, redeveloped & rebranded for contemporary vinyl enthusiasts.

From storing, cleaning, and procrastinating over our precious collections to Saturday morning music conversations over coffee at the local record store, owning and playing vinyl records is a labour of passion. It’s this passion that inspires us to continue refining the art of record play, so that what we build inspires an even deeper connection to the music collections we all so deeply love.


Manual turntables require you to cue, lower, and lift the tonearm at all stages of record play. They’re an audiophile preference because they reduce moving mechanical parts. Fewer moving turntable parts means less potential noise, noise that can be picked up by the cartridge. And that means cleaner, more detailed audio performance. It also means that you can upgrade to higher performance cartridges (more sensitive needles) in the future.


CS 418 – BORN ANALOGUE

Return to the heart of music with breath-taking 2M Red musicality, effortless multi-speed play, and the convenience of an inbuilt phono preamplifier. Welcome to the revolution. Welcome back to life at 33 ⅓

WORTHY OF YOUR WORSHIP

With a classic rubber matt atop an anodised silver platter spinning over black vinyl veneer, CS 418 is a 70s-style turntable dripping in music tradition. Because the table you play should be worthy of the collection you worship.

FUTURE PROOFED

Cartridge manufacturers cultivate sound the way winemakers do grapes, making future upgrades tasty. That’s why CS 418 incorporates precision counterweight and anti-skate adjustments, so you can calibrate for future tastes to suit your favourite vintage.

DIALED IN

Effortless and wonderfully tactile, Dual’s speed selection dial makes flipping between your favourite records a dream. Sling singles, start a 78 collection, or line up a playlist of LPs. It’s too easy and way too much fun.
