The Dual brand was once the epitome of high-quality turntables. In the 70s, together with the Thorens company, it regularly took the top places in record player tests. <br />

Die Marke Dual war einst der Inbegriff für hochwertige Plattenspieler. In den 70er Jahren belegte sie zusammen mit der Firma Thorens regelmäßig die Spitzenplätze bei Plattenspielertests. Die Firma wurde 1906 von den Gebrüdern Steidinger in St. Georgen im Schwarzwald gegründet. Dual war der größte Hersteller von Plattenspielern und hatte zu den besten Zeiten mehr als 3.000 Mitarbeiter. Im Jahr 1982 musste die Firma Insolvenz anmelden und wurde von der französischen Firma Thomson gekauft, im Jahr 1988 dann von der Schneider Rundfunkwerke AG.
The company was founded in 1906 by the Steidinger brothers in St. Georgen in the Black Forest. Dual was the largest manufacturer of turntables and had more than 3,000 employees at the best of times. In 1982 the company had to file for bankruptcy and was bought by the French company [[Thomson]], then in 1988 by the [[Schneider]] Rundfunkwerke AG.
 
  
The rights to the Dual name (except for record players) have belonged to Karstadt AG since 1996, which sells various consumer electronics devices under this name - but with a modified Dual logo. Record players under the Dual name are now manufactured by Alfred Fehrenbacher GmbH, St. Georgen. Since 2006, turntable production and the DUAL brand have been spun off into the subsidiary DUAL Phono GmbH.

Die Rechte am Namen Dual (außer für Plattenspieler) gehören seit 1996 der Karstadt AG, die diverse Unterhaltungselektronik-Geräte unter diesem Namen - aber mit verändertem Dual-Logo - vertreibt. Plattenspieler unter dem Namen Dual werden heute von der Alfred Fehrenbacher GmbH, St. Georgen, hergestellt. Seit 2006 ist die Plattenspieler-Produktion und die DUAL-Marke in die Tochterfirma DUAL Phono GmbH ausgegliedert.
  
The motto of the company was: "To the good sound belongs Dual".<br/>

Das Motto der Firma war: "Zum guten Ton gehört Dual"
The name Dual derives from the combination of spring drive and electric motor presented in 1927, the electric spring motor, which was called Dual and initially gave the turntables equipped with it, and later also the company its name.
