Great Turntable… My first Hi-Fi turntable was a Mk1 in 1981 now have a Mk2 like yours but in Oak-ish. Yes there are better but it’s vinyl and that history brings me back to the old Dual… just makes me smile every time I look at it and it still sounds good.
Well,this is a proper entry level turntable with all necessary features,its easy to operate and its of good build quality. No modern turntable in this class will offer you the same collection of attributes in this quality.
Still got mine that I bought from Richer Sounds, Tottenham Court Road in about 1985-6. Still works perfectly although I don't use it much. I have a few thousand vinyl singles and LPs but I mostly play mp3. It's in a glass cased hi-fi cabinet with my CD burner, amp/receiver and a twin cassette deck which all work fine.
I love Dual. Closest I have to that one is two Dual 506-1. One was my Dads. Plus own a 1229 and 8 other Duals. The sounds is great on them. Plus they treat the investment on records well.
I remember back in the mid-1980s when I had my 505, I got a brand new OM-30 cart. for it from Lyle Cartridges (New York) .... it was about $70 USD delivered!
I love my Dual 505-2. I'm using a Pro-Ject pick-it 25a phono cartridge and to my ears, it sounds great. Speed selector doesn't work but I can live with that. Initially had lots of rumble(I have the plastic housing) but sorted it out by adding lead weights inside the housing to increase the weight and reduce vibration. Replaced the rubber mat with a Hudson acrylic mat which also helped to improve the sound quality. Overall a very good starter turntable and I use it daily 👍
Have you tried fixing the speed selector. as it is just a simple derailing mechanism. An arm pushes the belt onto a thicker portion of the motor output shaft so if the aforementioned arm is just stuck a bit of oil might persuade it back into working again.
Us old farts were brought up on vinyl...I'm 66 this year and get my state pension and so reached another life time goal...make no mistake folks, music has kept me alive so far and I've just acquired a CS 505-3 which I'll put an Ortofon MC 10 Supreme at the end of the arm - wish me luck folks!
I ended up with a Rotel RP830 around the time you got your first 505. I must say, the wooden plinth makes it look a lot better than I remember them looking. John Miles - More Miles Per Hour. Theat's an album I'd completely forgotten about. I'm downloading a FLAC version as I type. Thanks for the reminder.
I was not familiar with the Rotel model, but looking at pictures, I see where manufacturers like Rega and Pro-Ject took inspiration from. It looks ahead of its time.
@@Fluteboy I've given the John Miles one and a half listens, though quietly so as not to wake anybody up. Fella in the Cellar is the only one that felt like a familiar echo. Track 1 is very Roxy Music, another felt like early Genesis were playing a Beatles tune. There's a track that uses a riff very close to Rainbow's Since You've been Gone. Some disco/funk. From last night's listen did I catch a track that had a fiddle tune toward the end but played on guitar? Mostly it didn't move me but there are a few tracks I want to try again. I think I remember Fella in the Cellar because it was my favourite track on the album. I remember I had it on the same C90 tape as Mike Rutherford's Smallcreep's Day album. The Rega Planar 2 and 3 were out before the Rotel RP830. I think the best looking budget deck of that era was the Sansui SR222. The reflective polished plinth versions look like they should have been several times their price. They tended to be seen as second best to the Dual 505 in sonic terms though. Your 505 looks great with the wooden plinth.
I bought this deck new in 1986, it’s under my bed at the moment and does need belts and the arm switch that gets it going. Also last time I used it it wasn’t outputting through the phono input on my Rotel RA820BX. Back in 1990 I bought a Goldring G1020 cartridge and I found that a great improvement over the Ortofon. I must get it fixed.
Nice one - I still (occasionally) use my CS-505 (exactly that, not 505-1 / 2 etc) which I bought in 1983. After a number of years hiding in my garage, I gave it a new belt and Ortofon 2M Red cartridge - sounds great !! Need to replace the pitch control belt and sort out "hesitant / non start", but still enjoy using it.
That brings back memories. I too had the plastic plinth 505-2 in my teenage years and regret getting rid of it. I seem to remember changing the om10 cartridge for a Goldring 1010 or something. I think it sounded slightly fuller in the bass, but who knows, it was circa 1987; we've all passed a lot of water since then!
Jonathan Bignall I’ve still got my 505-2 deluxe from 86. I too put the Goldring 1010 on it and saw an improvement. It gathered dust and I bought a 1012gx stylus in 2000. Recently out of loft and needs new belts and some tlc again!
I meant to comment some days ago but forgot it, silly me! I am the lucky owner of a Dual CS 505-4 Audiophile Concept. I also own several other non Dual turntables, the best one being a fully functional full auto Garrard Zero 100 SB. The Dual is unmatched... Fantastic turntable, I own several cartridges and they are all a perfect match with the Ultra Low Mass Tonearm: the Ortofon Super OM 40 is fantastic on it, but I recently found the PERFECT match with a new old stock of the legendary Stanton 681 EEE!
The Stanton is an interesting looking beast! It also seems to hold its value when second hand too.I do find myself fretting the apparent lack of choice for a ULM tonearm. People recommend the 2M series, the Goldring 2000 series, or even an old Shure one that is no longer made. Many people favour the sound of the AT95E, but that apparently doesn't match the ULM tonearm. What to do!
Fluteboy well if you don’t want to change cartridge, you should just try to upgrade the stylus: an Ortofon OM 30 or 40 will be enough to listen to records like never before. In fact you’ll be longing for a decent record cleaning machine, like me... I just ordered the Pro-Ject VC-S MK2... let’s hope it repays itself...
@@Fluteboy I usually like Ortofon`s sound more than Audio Technica`s... I am so happy as I won a new old stock original Stanton 68000 EEE Stylus for the 681 cartridge... Can`t wait, I love the moving iron sound! Also I wanted to tell you: you NEED to find the optional weight for the Dual tonearm (it`s like a small black hockey puck which is to be screwed behind the original weight/counterbalance) It gives you a little bit more in terms of frequencies!
Got one of these used for 60 bucks 7 or 8 years ago, since then have replaced the belts, taken it apart and cleaned everything, and replaced the rca phono connectors. Still going strong and I plan on continuing to use it until it dies in a way I can't fix.
@@Jay-oz5zo Jay, I saw your comment here and I would like to find out more about how you replaced the RCA cables. I have this model and it works fine but the cables have to be fiddled with to get them in the right position to "be quiet" and not hum. Not sure how to send a private message on here. thx. steve
@@awalrus1 this is the guide I used and it worked perfectly. th-cam.com/video/3tp1UXnPnFU/w-d-xo.html You Just need 2 new rca connectors and soldering I equipment. However if you dont have access to soldering grar, you can just buy 2 new rca plugs and ask the a Electronics place to replace the connectors. Should be qa quick cheap job for them, it was the first time soldereding anything for me and it went perfectly. There are some recommdations for solderless rca connectors out there but I wouldn't use them. Connection could easily die again, much weaker bond than solder.
You've made it running smooth! I am wondering if you could give me your opinion about the issue I've got with my recent purchase. I've acquired 506 model, but the lever which is responsible for lowering and lifting the arm is not working. Arm stays on it's high position and it's not possible to put the needle on the vinyl. Any ideas what might be a case and if it's an easy fix?
If I am right, your 506 is largely identical in mechanical working to the 505, just with the addition of a strobe light. You must first ensure that the black pin that physically raises the tonearm is not stuck by way of old grease. Also, under the chassis there is a metal arm that connects between the tonearm lever and the black pin. Ensure this arm is not bent and therefore forcing the pin into a permanent up position. It is worth sharing the matter with the Dual forum at vinylengine.com. There are folk there who know their Dual inside out.
I have dual cs 505-1 (1982year). Noise level -54 dB during playback, probably the noise from the motor, the disc rod was lubricated. Is it possible to reduce the noise?
Check and possibly replace the three rubber mounts supporting the motor itself. Also check the height of the brass pulley on the motor shaft. Mine rode up the shaft and caused the belt to scrape on the speed change arm.
Thanks for the video. I have one of these that I dug out of the loft for my son, the only problemt I seem to have at times I think is the earth. If anyone has any thoughts on how to sort this that would be great. Kindest to all and thanks for the video.
Do you hear a hum in the audio? Does that hum increase when you touch the metal tonearm? The black ground wire may have become disconnected. It is usually connected to the chassis, along with the black wire from the tonearm.
I used to have 505-2 before the war started in Ukraine. I hope some day I will back listening to music on vinyl. Love this turntable. Thanks for your video.
i have a 505 mk2 that i found in the bin and whoever had it broke the plastic piece that pushes the speed selector under the platter so whever i want to change speeds i have to take off the platter
Now you know how it feels to own a Rega turntable! The German based website dualfred.de may provide suitable spares for Dual turntables. Also consult the forum at vinylengine.com where a post and a photo may bring some helpful advice.
I picked one of these up a couple of years ago which had a damaged lid and wouldn't stop or lift the arm at the end of the record. For £30 I thought I would strip it and sell the parts if I couldn't fix it. All it needed was 2 springs. New om10 cartridge cost me twice what I paid for the deck.
The OM10 is a pricey bugger. As for the springs, they may be small and look benign, but they seem to decide whether the deck runs or not! I do hope you managed to have it cooperate in the end.
@@Fluteboy working perfectly although the damaged lid got binned and I use an old record to keep dust of the platter. Also mine had the black "wood" finish as this is just a surround piece stapled to the plastic base I took it off and made a nice solid wood one which is stained and varnished.
I used to have the exact same turntable as this. My best friend always admired it. I've since bought a 2017 Rega Planar 2, but I sometimes wish I had kept hold of it. I hope you don't mind me commenting, but I do find your record cleaning method very heavy handed. When you were cleaning the record I could hear the bottom of platter scraping along the base! PLEASE do not take offence at this though. Fantastic turntable though.
I do have that tendency to press down heavily with the velvet brush, yes! You are perfectly entitled to pull me up on that. ;) The scraping sound is actually the platter being slowed by my left index finger. At 9:06 you will see the aforementioned sausage being pressed against the platter rim. But like you say, it does sound like metal against metal, so I shall have to try something gentler....
As I did in this video. The ultimate solution was to replace the tonearm, at a cost of £20 or £25. The hardest part of this is soldering in those very fine wires. Replacing the gimbal bearings is just too finicky. The site dualfred .de sells many parts.
@@nebojsageorgijev675 From what I remember, once you disconnect the signal wires under the chassis, you then unscrew and remove the tracking force knob, and this allows you to remove the tonearm from the bearing frame. On the dualfred site, if you need to replace the rectangular bearing frame, this is part number 237230
That is true. I am using an Audio Technica AT-VM95E these days (61.g v the 2.5g of the Ortofon OM), and did have to add the ring weight to the existing counterweight. It was of its time. Low mass tonearms were in vogue back then.
@Dixene Lee I found the OM to be somewhat easy-listening. I craved proper treble response, and the AT was able to supply it at not much cost. Yes the OM is a sexy number, though it won't suit all.
@@andy3974 Which is fine if you can afford a Rega! Those lovelies have really gone up in price since I shot this. And the latest version of the Dual is £600, so even more reason for some people to shop second hand.
nice 👍🏼 I think about getting this one 2nd hand as a first gramophone, but I'm not sure because my pops said It's old and It would be hard to find parts for replacement etc. but it looks good
Parts are certainly out there. the German site dualfred.de is devoted to Dual parts, and eBay is never bereft of parts. New tonearm? Found on eBay for £15 New motor? £20 on eBay. the forum at vinylengine.com is also awash with devotees.

The speed adjuster belt has been replaced but still has difficulty selecting different speed. Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't.
