    Fixing my late grandfather's Dual 1019

    Hi all, I am hoping to find someone super familiar with the Dual 1019. I am pretty novice when it comes to turntables, and I inherited my grandfather's 1019 when he passed. It would engage the motor when clicked to "start" but the motor would not continuously run. The "stop" motor put the...

    Playing both 33/45 and 78 on a Dual 1019?

    Hi, I recently found a couple of nice 78 records which got me wondering if I could improve my set-up a bit. It’s “coals to Newcastle” to mention here, but even apart from the sound, there’s a charm to playing records that transcends anything a cd can offer, let alone Spotify or what have you...

Just got a Dual 1019, it's been rewired recently and all, and I'm aware of how the headshell and contacts can be iffy, but I've yet to check that out on mine.

    Taming sibilance: Ortofon OM10/Dual 1019

    My newest toy is a Dual 1019 with an Ortofon OM10. I've been getting intermittent and fairly mild to moderate sibilance on most LPs, usually in the middle of the LP, and usually not in the inner grooves. What I've done so far: 1. Verified alignment. The 1019 does have a short tonearm, and...

    Yet another Dual 1019 Thread - Just picked one up

    For me it keeps raining Dual Turntables. Why do these Dual's come to me so cheap? Then I have to take them in like lost puppies. This time it was a Dual 1019. I was at the local old style electronics parts store and they have a room where they resell vintage equipment. I pass through once in a...

    Hi. The motor in my Dual 1219 has broken down and my tech guy says it has to be replaced. I stumbled across this motor on ebay but would like to be certain that it will fit before I commit. I've read that 1019 and 1219 have different motors and this one supposedly works for both, which is a...

    Dual owners need your help

    The last few nights I've tried to listen to records on my 1019 I thought they sounded off, so I checked the platter speed and it was a little slow. I adjusted it via the pitch adjustment to get it back up to the correct speed. Just now I went to listen to a record and the sound was off...

All of them are in good working and cosmetic...

    Late 60s Stereo Console

    Happy New Year, AKers! Personally, I was very happy to see 2015 in the rear view mirror. As with most things though, it was not all bad. My in-laws moved from their home of 50 years and in their usual generous way gave me their old stereo console. While I am not crazy about the styling, it is...
