Remarks[edit]
The players of this series are very often underestimated in their performance, and not seldom disdained by the lovers of the dual wooden frame players. But if you are interested in pure listening pleasure, you can enjoy vinyl on a very high level with one of the CS 2225Q/2235Q players and a current pickup system / needle e.g. from the original house system supplier Ortofon.
However, also the players of this series are not to be held completely without a maintenance at the run. However, with them is far less effort compared to the other dual player series necessary, and incidentally quite manageable even for laymen.
Other models of the same series:
- Dual CS 2210
- Dual CS 2215
- Dual CS 2225 Q
- Dual CS 2235 Q (with digital display for speed preselection)
