Dual 502 fans?

After years of cd listening on a surround sound system I finally decided to get my first turntable proper. A friend gave me a Dual 502 turntable...I had never heard of this brand...after a few weeks with this baby I'm in love. I left it on last night and the automatic shut of didn't work and it was spinning all night...after a while I could hearca squeaking noise and I was so worried I had ruined it. I removed the platter and just applied some oil on the spindle and motor and boom..sorted. Love how easy it is to work with these turntables. What are peoples opinions on the 502? Anybody had problems with them? Have it paired with a Realistic STA 2000D receiver and Coral CX 5 speakers.

 

No issues and pulled out all the tone arm & mechanism in mine and installed a Rega 202 arm on it and it sounds fantastic and good for another 100K miles.

 

Nice table and obviously the price was right
