For sale: A beautiful Dual 1218 automatic idler-drive turntable in its original CS 31 walnut console. A classic of German Hi-Fi engineering, known for its precision and robust build.

​Condition: 100% working order. All automatic and manual functions have been tested and verified.

​Maintenance: Partially serviced. Old, hardened grease has been removed and fresh lubrication (oil/grease) has been applied to the main mechanical points to ensure smooth operation.

​Cartridge: Equipped with a classic Shure M75 Type D cartridge (new generic stylus) for that warm, punchy analog sound.

​Aesthetics: The wooden plinth is in excellent condition. Note: The original smoked dust cover looks great overall but has a visible crack/fissure on the right side (please check the photos).

​Power & Frequency (International Buyers): This unit is multi-voltage (110V/220V). However, it is currently configured for 50Hz (European standard). For use in USA/Canada (60Hz), the motor pulley (rotor shaft) must be replaced with a 60Hz version to ensure the correct playback speed.

​Connectivity: Original DIN output cable.

​A fantastic-sounding machine, ready to play. Perfect for collectors or vinyl enthusiasts looking for a reliable vintage player.
