Lab Overview

šŸ“ŒLAB POINTS

  • fully automatic audiophile turntableĀ combining versatile connectivity w/ classic hi-fi aesthetics
  • automatic operation: play switchĀ turns on motor and puts tonearm on record, tonearm returns and stops motorĀ when side ends (all automatic functions can be performed manually)
  • built-in phono preamp for easily assimilation w/ your existing audio setup (switchable on/off)
  • pre-mountedĀ Ortofon 2M Red cartridge
  • solid MDF (Medium Density Fiberboard, a very dense engineered wood material) plinth w/ black veneer
  • belt drive operation
  • plays at 33, 45 + 78 RPM
  • includes hinged removable dustcover

"The fully automatic function of the CS 429 provides maximum ease of use. The tonearm automatically lifts, shifts across and drops with the push of a button. Simply place the vinyl record on the platter and push the start button. The CS 429 has a fully adjustable tonearm. This provides the option to change the pickup in the future and to alter the tracking force and anti-skating accordingly. The internal rubber damping construction decouples the tonearm and platter from external vibrations. This very quiet platform provides an excellent sound performance combined with precise, optical speed control." -Ā Dual
