    Dual 1219 Pop diagnosis and switch block internals

    I'm restoring a Dual 1219 and am addressing the "Pop" on motor start / stop. I've cleaned the visible contacts with DeOxit and replaced the snubber capacitor with a new .1mF cap, but still have the pops. Did a crocus cloth contact cleaning - no change. Also cleaned the mute contacts similarly...

    Dual 1219 platter wobble

    Hello! I finally got my 1219 working enough to enjoy it and I really like the sound (and the cool factor, auto play, signal staying off until it cycles correctly, and more). The only issue is that every now and then the motor doesn't switch off immediately after auto return cycles (but with a...

    Dual 1219 Anti Skate Issue - Acting erratic

    Hello, I have been kinda stumped by this - my well set up Dual 1219 has started acting strange with regards to the anti-skate setting. Probably a year a two ago, I determined I needed to back down the anti skate setting to close to 0 to get it to perform correctly. It has recently began...

    Time For a New Stylus?

    I’m running a Dual 1219 with Pickering V15 and D400 stylus. It’s a fairly new (to me) deck I purchased from the original owner. It has been treated well, but not used for some twenty years. I cleaned it up, oiled the motor, it is silent and works flawlessly now. But, when I went to setup the...
