Product Details

Dual CS 618Q in black, three-quarter view

Quartz-stabilized direct drive

The CS 618Q drives its turntable directly, without a belt, using a quartz-stabilized motor. The coreless motor eliminates magnetic fluctuations, and the double shielding blocks out stray fields away from the cartridge. Speed is maintained with high precision, with wow and flutter below ±0.07% (DIN).

Automatic tonearm lift of the Dual CS 618Q

Automatic tonearm lift and stop

Designed with a manual feel in mind, the 618Q adds two useful automatic features: at the end of the record, the motor stops and the tonearm lifts automatically, preventing the stylus from scraping the exit groove. Antiskating is adjusted via a graduated knob, and the three speeds (33/45/78) are selected via an electronic selector. You retain control over tracking, while the turntable handles the end-of-side transition.

Gimbal tonearm and Ortofon 2M Blue cartridge of the CS 618Q

Double-gimbal tonearm, Ortofon 2M Blue cartridge

The solid aluminum dual-gimbal tonearm rotates on four precision ball bearings and features a removable cartridge holder. It comes factory-fitted with an Ortofon 2M Blue cartridge, whose refined bare diamond offers greater definition than the 2M Red found on more affordable models. The heavy 1,450 g cast aluminum platter serves as a flywheel.

Black vinyl-veneered finish

The MDF base features a black vinyl veneer and sits on 62-mm elastomer feet. A dust cover is included, and the auto-off function can be disabled. This is the understated finish of the 618Q, designed to blend seamlessly into a dark rack.
