I was happy I didn’t have to lug the speakers home, they were loud and sounded what you would expect them to sound like. Just not what I was looking for.

Thanks I came home with Pioneer SX-980

Luckily he has agreed to separate the speakers from the receiver and we are meeting in the morning, Thanks Again.

Thanks I figured so much but figured I would ask. I haven’t contacted them yet the asking price is decent for just the receiver, if they were worth something it would be a better deal. Thanks

I am considering buying a receiver and the seller has it bundled with these speakers. I am really only interested in receiver, however if he won’t separate I may be bringing these home. Is anyone familiar with these they remind me of a Peavey style speaker. Just figured I would ask here to...

Well I had a nice email exchange with Bill from Fixmydual this afternoon. I believe based on our conversation the price I paid for the unit and the 50HZ maybe issue which I mentioned to him, I believe I have decided to send it to him. His price seems reasonable and like anything it could go up...

Thanks I will check out the apps, I did checkout Vinyl Engine and have been looking at all kinds of things since I got it, not trying to hurry anything I don't want to cause anymore harm if something is broken. I also sent Fixmydual an email today just enquiring how they go about rebuilding...

I am glad you asked this question, Thank You, I am obviously still learning turntables, and just learned something new.

I am still cleaning the unit, I have powered it up most of the functions are still gummed up and I just ordered a sled from Best Audio Parts so I haven't attempted to listen to anything yet. I wanted to clean more of it before I try. So I am guessing something will need to be done if the 50HZ...

I am in the US, Louisiana specifically

What is the difference?

I probably would have fathered a regular base but it is in decent shape and useable. Unfortunately the stacker spindle is pretty rusty probably not useable. Those parts were cool to find, a little bonus.

I did some cleaning on it today, the dual logo on the case was held on for the most part by scotch tape, it had a few small bends I am trying to glue it back down with some clamps. I did verify that the motor does work most of the switches are gummed up I started looking at the DIY restoration...

The platter is 50Hz, the center of the platter still had cellophane on it when I took it off. It is nice and silver underneath. Is there anyway to get the goldish discoloration off the platter?

Thanks Eric for the info

Is this the serial number?

Thanks, I think I will try and rehab it, but may decide to send it somewhere I haven’t decided yet.

These are a couple of pictures before I clean it.

So I went picked it up this morning. When i first saw the listing it was listed as a Lloyd’s Turntable with only 2 pictures that I attached. I saw the Dual logo in the one picture and was able to zoom in enough to read the model number. Probably why it was still available, they originally...

Thanks for all the responses I am going meet him in the morning to pick it up. I will post some pictures after I get it.

Thanks for the advice Ryan

I found a Dual 1219 for $150 about an hour from me, after they tried testing it, it is no longer turning on and needs a stylus. They claim it use to work and are now willing to take $50. I was working on a Garrard SL95B that was in similar condition a good cleaning got most of the functions...

I haven’t posted in a while I have a set in Crowley if you wanna take a road trip i can meet you and you can look at mine.

That is a great question I am getting ready to change mine. Are there any better belts to buy, I saw some on ebay but haven’t bought any yet. My rewind is slow I am hoping this will help.

I picked up a JVC KD-85 tape deck about a month ago and it was paired to a JVC JR-S201. I thought it was cool that they were still wired together but there was nothing that made me want the receiver enough to bring it home. I thought it was kinda of strange that they had a lower end receiver...
