Data[edit]
General
- Manufacturer: Dual
- Model: Golden 1 (CS 7000 was its name in the USA)
- Years of manufacture: 1988 - 1992
- Made in: Germany
- Color: Black, metal parts gold plated
- Power consumption: 9 Watt
- Dimensions: 440 x 143 x 380 mm (WxHxD)
- Weight: 8 kg
- Original price approx.: 1,200 DM (RRP without system), 1,700 DM (RRP with Audio Technica AT-OC 7)
Connections
- Outputs: fixed cinch connection cable (gold-plated)
Technical data
- Drive: belt
- Motor: EDS 5000 (quartz-controlled flat-rotor motor with speed control via microprocessor)
- Speed: 33 1/3 /45/78 UPM
- Synchronous speed fluctuations: ±0.013%/0.023% (WRMS/DIN).
- Rumble noise ratio: 80 dB
- Turntable: Aluminium 304 mm
- Operation mode: Semi-automatic
- Pitch: No
- Tonearm: Yes
- Cartridge: optional Audio Technica AT-OC 7
Special Features
- Detachable 1/2 inch headshell (headstock)
- OPS system (low-lying tonearm bearing) for better scanning of warped records
- Gyroscopic cardan tonearm bearing with 4-point bearing, tracking force control via torsion spring
- Subchassis construction
- The motor is quartz controlled. Since the slip of the drive belt can cause the platter speed to deviate from the set value nevertheless, the platter speed is monitored by a sensor (light barrier). The relation between the motor speed and the disc speed is stored.
Remarks[edit]
The device is the refined version of the CS 5000. Metal parts are here real gold-plated (24 carat) and the console is provided with high-quality piano lacquer. In addition, there was a screw-on plate stabilizer. Originally, the unit was available without a cartridge. Later there was a combination set with Audio Technica system (OC7). Unlike the CS 5000, the speed selection is no longer done by push buttons, but by a rotary control. A power switch is no longer available.
