smaller-sized Duals?

I have a 701 in my living room system and It's the last turntable I'll ever buy for that one. Not small for sure. I have A 1019 in my bedroom and it's still a good size table. Love it too. Bought them both from Bill at fixmydual.com. Great turntables.
 
I've used a 1226 in my bedroom system for about 5 years, and it's a great little turntable. The noise floor is probably not the greatest, there are times when I hear a little rumble, but overall it sounds very fine, and after some initial tweaking, it has been totally reliable. There are some parts that can break, and the interconnects will either have been replaced or will need it, but I can definately recommend one.

Have you cleaned up or rebuilt the idler wheel and platter drive surface? That should have a major impact on the noise level.
