CS 429

Robust, precise, reliable: The perfect features for your record player

The CS 429, a fully automatic turntable for ultimate convenience. The tonearm moves autonomously at the touch of a button – simply place the record on the turntable and press the start button.

The adjustable tonearm allows the use of different cartridges with individual settings for tracking force and antiskating.
