It features a ULM (Ultra Low Mass) straight alloy tonearm, 221 mm in length, mounted in a four-point gimbal low-friction tip bearing — a design aimed at minimising tracking distortion. The non-magnetic 304 mm platter weighs 0.9 kg and sits atop an anti-vibration sprung floating chassis. Wow and flutter is rated at 0.08% DIN \/ 0.05% WRMS, with a rumble figure of 69 dB weighted. Pitch control offers ±6% adjustment at both speeds, and the frequency response is quoted at 10–25,000 Hz. One compatibility note worth flagging: the tonearm is designed for Dual's clip-on cartridge system; fitting a standard ½-inch mount cartridge requires a rare dedicated adapter plate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eA great opportunity to own a Dual CS505-1 at this price point.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Dual","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53963250434385,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0775\/6913\/0833\/files\/c004c959-c89c-4b40-b44a-0f571097b4d0.jpg?v=1780667447","url":"https:\/\/www.audiotrader.co.uk\/products\/dual-cs505-1-turntable-spares-or-repair","provider":"Audio Trader","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
