Review 2 of 2

Summary:
I picked up this turntable secondhand a few years ago, and while I was happy with the performance, I felt (along with others) that the weak link in this table was the stock tonearm, so I took a chance & upgraded the arm to a Rega RB300What a difference! The bass response is much improved, with more detail. This is the only belt drive turntable (that I know of) that is quartz controlled. This is the best looking turntable that Dual has ever made. It even plays 78's!!
