I bought a second-hand Dual 741Q back in the 90s. It's a direct drive and came with an Ortofon LM 20. It has served me well since; definitely a quality product!

I really enjoy any content you upload be it retro equipment, how to lessons, caveats, reviews etc. They are all fascinating to me. I think experts like yourself sometimes think content is boring because its second nature to yourself but to people encountering these items/ projects for the first time is invaluable. So thank you for all your interesting and educational content thus far and I never miss what you upload. For example this retro record player, I've never even thought about examining a stylus before using one, lesson learned. Thank you again.

Records are one step above cassette which isn't saying much. Good vintage audio is Reel to Reel. I wont deal with anything but flac files now.

Lookee there kids, that's a REAL turntable! Maybe one day you'll be able to get something new that's comparable without having to sell your Star Wars collectables! Now, you kids get off my lawn! (Wanders off into back yard to yell at the neighbor's kids who are playing with their drone)

Keep up the videos, John! Your expertise and knowledge in electronics are appreciated. Those AT cartridges sound excellent as well as most Shures.............

I have 2 record players (Scottish) with excellent cartridges (my best one is a very rare Audio Technica improved at MicroBentz Laboratories). A friend of mine had exactly the record player you show us. Not a bad device for its price. The most weak part of this is the "automations" . If you care CAREFULLY the gumball (with a very little drop of thin watch grease - the blue) and the pivots of the arm it is a nice device

I had one of those. It had a built in amplifier and accompanied speakers. It was a 1228 and it had the m91ed, too.

All's good John after all you just moved house but I would like to see you build and test Rod Elliott's preamp as I have designed a board for it ages ago, so maybe if you do make it Ill post you a board (if the stars align for both of us !) test a Vero Board against a PCB could be fun who knows ! I have built a headphone amp from his design and my layout and it sounds superb Rod is a clever no nonsense bloke I feel, and I have been using the amp as my daily driver for a couple of years now. If you start playing with different opamp's cast your eye over the OPA1656 please and perhaps comment on it some day.....cheers.

These DUALs have been known to have RIFA caps in them. You might want to check and replace those

I think the Dual's were the ducks guts in the Netherlands. Automatic was verry cool. I think it is a German brand. I have to rewat h TPAI now. He refurbished one a while ago.
