I had many Duals 1019,1219,1229.1229q. superb craftmanship , they say today they wouldn't be as godd as current turntables, I say no , they were precise,the catridges back then would track at 1 1/4 to 1 1/2 grams today they are 1 3/4 to 2 1/2 grams I wish i had kept my Duals. i think to build same quality today would be 4x as much 12 to 1500 dollars plus you could use it manually or auto , the muting circuit would cut in during arm movement so totally quiet
This custom case for your Dual 1229 is GORGEOUS! I like the convenient location of the phono cables at the back, looks like you spaced them out a bit too so they can accommodate newer cables with thicker casings. I really like the chrome feet you put on it and the vent on the bottom. Very nice. Who did this work? Can I order one and move my table into it? Sure would be nice to have a good on an actual hinge. The OE hood is lose and just kind of rests against a wooden rail.
Hello, I only built three of them. With different turntables. All are on TH-cam. I still have the last to sell in black with a dual 1019 TH-cam th-cam.com/video/Fx9BjdWZBwg/w-d-xo.html Ebay 391954192046. The hood is not loose. It has hinges and they are stuck in the back of the wood. It is from an Elac 50 H II. TH-cam th-cam.com/video/3KBqJG_BHZ0/w-d-xo.html Greetings from Germany
I have same modelle at home. I really love it's sound. To get sound better, I want to fix a disc stabiliser on the platter. İs a heavy weight disc ( 600 gr) too much on the platter? Any recommendation please!
Hello Jack, I had the frame made as a box and then installed the turntable. th-cam.com/video/3KBqJG_BHZ0/w-d-xo.html The lid is from an Elac record player. They were installed on the Elac 770H or on the Elac Compact 25. I built three. See my videos. Black with Dual 1019 and white with JVC. greetings
Hallo Wolfgang, die habe ich mir bei EBay gekauft. Habe sie beim Verkauf mit gegeben. Wollte sie erst vorne aufkleben. Habe mir dann gesagt ob es dem Käufer überhaubt gefällt. Mit freundlichen Grüßen
I own an mint condition Dual 1229, only is the original base. Yet the cover, base, and table still look new. I absolutely love the 1229
That pleases me. greetings

Hello, I have no experience with this. Try out. Greetings
Wow. What did you do to the plinth? Any recollection of products used? I’m overhauling a 1229 and I’m being very indecisive
excelente trabajo felicitaciones desde medellin colombia
Great 1229!!
Thank you
Got a chance to buy one, what is this turntable like compared to Thorens TD160?
Hello, this is a self-made. The Thorens TD160 is slightly more expensive. I can't say if it's better than a 1229. greetings
@@Feldmarschall1000 thanks for your reply. Just wondering what the sound quality is like 😊
nice, that looks good. What kind of RCA inputs are they?
