Dual 601 Turntable For Sale Canuck Audio Mart

I am considering buying dual 601 turntable. There are two available in my local buy and sell group, one with the Grado F1+ cartridge and the other with the Shure DM103 ME. Keep in mind, the Shure DM103 ME Dual is 80$ more expensive, but this seller seems much more knowledgeable and has calibrated and maintained the turntable recently.. The 601 is a little more stripped back than other Dual turntables, as it does not provide a multi-play option. However, the automatic features common to most Dual turntables are present. The real problem with the Dual 601 turntable is its motor, the SM-840. It has a problem whereby when started up at 33 RPM it will play at 45 RPM.

Even though the new turntables from Japan, such as the Sony PS-X4 [HFN Sep '17], were beginning to make German company Dual's offerings look a little old fashioned, they still enjoyed a loyal following.The CS 601 featured a powerful eight-pole synchronous motor which operated almost silently and had its speed locked to the mains frequency.. The turntable is known for its sleek design and sturdy construction, making it a reliable choice for vinyl enthusiasts. It also includes a built-in phono preamp for easy connectivity to audio systems and speakers. The Dual 601 has received positive reviews for its performance and overall quality.
