Giving it a great sound. It can plays 7 33’s or 7 45’s with its multi-spindle . *It’s totally rebuilt and refurbished, spotless and looks like it just out of the box. It plays exactly the same as when it was built. * The 1229 has a strobe light which you used to check your album speed and adjust using the pitch-control knob for fine-speed adjustments for all 3 speeds and permits a platter speed variation of 6% *It has the best of everything that Dual ever produced and for authenticity and outstanding craftsmanship, the crown has to go to the legendary 1229 one of the best turntables of all time. Dual 1229 Model # 107728 *This precision German made machine weighs 21 lbs with 281 moving parts ( including microscopic wires) that all have to work precisely together. *The beauty of this Dual 1229 is unlike other turntables as this specific table (with rebuilt gyroscope gimbal) has been designed to continuously play 33, 45’s and automatically shut off. It also plays single mode for 78’s so the tonearm is parallel to the album. Included 5 45 record insert adapters to multi-play 45’s and a single play spindle for a 78rpm *The tonearm has been vertically balance set, leveled, cued, azimuth set, speed tested, anti skating set and everything completely degreased and lubricated. *This heavy non-magnetic, dynamically balanced 12” platter was designed for a low level vibrations. *The extra long 8.75” tonearm was also designed for a solid turntable with excellent sound output. *If you’re not interested in a multi play TT you don’t need to buy this.

It’s a collector’s item and will always be going up in value. *You will see the same TT from $300 up and advertised as works. That doesn’t mean everything works. You don’t want to buy a broken Dual. *I give my phone # for every purchase to help set it up as soon as you receive it. There are always minor problems from being thrown around. Which are can easily be fixed. Due to the age of this device & the uncertain nature of vintage electronics. This unit is being sold as pictured/described
