    That one's a little treasure.

    Happen to think all of his early 70s work with Bernie is Fantastic!!

    Yeah, I didn´t pay him much attention... until I heard some of his early stuff here. Next is Tumbleweed Connection.

    Give up one of yours

     

    You cant play them all at once

     

    No – But You can play them one after the other... 😜

    Once I get around to putting my PE2020 back together, I'll have three TTs in the living room. And the 1214 hooked up to my small Yamaha amp for my PC.

    And then there's that 1229 waiting for maintenance in the closet...

    Look for a Wega 3420 Model with a Dual 1229 friction wheel drive , they were one of the best tt´s built by Dual ever.

    It depends on what ones tastes are, idler-driven, belt-driven - The 1249 has the slightly better arm.

    Ah, the liftpiece (Hubstück)... Yes, there are 3D-prints aviable. If that one´s broken, You should also look at 242, which often is dry and hardened rubber, not flexible. If this is the case, and one "forces" the multiselector (single/multi-play switch), the liftpiece cracks...

    And while You look at 242, also look out for the two metal balls (243) that go with it:

    The rubberring (242) can be replaced with a piece of cut-to-fit piece of silicone hose of same length and thickness.

     

    Here are the part lists:

    You're feet are about as appealing as that butt crack brother!

    I don´t hide my weaknesses, haha 🤣

     

    Yes, that´s my 601, my other is a 1218. Plus: I´ve got a 1229 and a 1214 in storage. Both have to be serviced first, before they spin again. I might give the 1214 away though, as it´s the smallest of them all with the least sophisticated arm...
