The emphasis on high component precision is used throughout the entire range of Dual products. This also applies to the entry model CS 418 which uses the same base platform as the higher models in the product range.
The Ortofon 2M Red pickup and a switchable MM-phono-preamplifier are part of this ready-to-run package. The CS 418 is more than simply good value for money, it offers a solid sound performance and a 5-year warranty for long-term ownership.
