I restore Dual Turntables regularly. Several per month. I also work on Thorens, AR, any Japanese units. My personal table is a 1219. Once serviced properly they are great units. A 504 is not a great table. It's a good starter unit. It is what it is. Thorens tables are very good, but generally I believe that they are overrated. Hard to beat a Technics Q-lock.
