Our Thoughts RADAR AI

At kr 5,990 SEK, this is fair to slightly attractive versus the model’s normal new-price territory, which sits around kr 7,000–kr 8,000 SEK depending on the market and finish. It’s not a steal, but it’s comfortably below retail for a current, fully automatic belt-drive deck, so if the condition is genuinely clean and everything works, the ask is reasonable.

What makes it worth a look is the fully automatic operation, the included Ortofon 2M Red, and Dual’s generally solid, easy-living build: die-cast aluminum platter, MDF plinth, and a straightforward plug-and-play setup. It’s a good fit if you want modern convenience without giving up decent sound and speed stability. At this price, the main buy-check is simple: confirm the auto functions, arm lift, speed lock, and cartridge/stylus condition are all healthy.

Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.

About Dual

Dual emerged from the Black Forest region of Germany in 1907, when brothers Christian and Joseph Steidinger began manufacturing clockwork and gramophone components in St. Georgen. The company adopted its now-iconic name in 1927 after pioneering dual-mode power supplies that allowed gramophones to operate from either mains electricity or mechanical wind-up mechanisms. This innovation marked the beginning of Dual's transition from component supplier to full-fledged audio manufacturer, establishing a foundation of engineering precision that would define the brand for decades.

Dual built its reputation primarily as a turntable specialist, becoming Europe's largest turntable manufacturer by the post-war era with over 3,000 employees across multiple factories. Beyond vinyl playback, the company expanded into cassette players, CD players, and broader consumer electronics throughout the 1970s and 1980s, demonstrating versatility across analog and digital formats. The company's focus on mechanical excellence and stable drive systems earned it recognition as a dependable, quality-focused manufacturer throughout its European heyday.

Today, Dual occupies a fragmented market position following corporate restructuring in the 1990s and subsequent ownership changes. The original German turntable line continues production in St. Georgen under Alfred Fehrenbacher GmbH, maintaining traditional manufacturing standards and appealing to vintage enthusiasts and collectors. Separately, Namsung Electronics markets Dual-branded consumer electronics in the Americas at accessible price points. The brand's legacy rests primarily on its classic turntables, which remain highly sought after by collectors and audiophiles valuing precision engineering and heritage craftsmanship.
