Dual CS 329

Fully automatic belt-drive turntable, plug and play, with Audio-Technica AT91 cartridge and an output for a phono or line input.

CS 329: the design

The CS 329 is the turntable Dual suggests starting with: it arrives assembled and set up at the factory, so you connect it and play. It is fully automatic, the tonearm sets off, lowers and lifts by itself once you press Start, yet it can also be used by hand.

The cartridge is an Audio-Technica AT91 with tracking force fixed at the factory. The RCA cable is captive and the output suits both a phono input and a line input. There are two speeds, 33 and 45 rpm.
