It cannot stack records as the metal part or spindle in the middle hole cannot be taken out.

It was defective , or I was fooled. I had to change the belt. So I did, but now it only plays 45rpms correctly. If I change the speed to 33 it won't have it and keeps playing at 45!! Also the automatic function doesnt work and the arm doesnt move towards the record or back.

If you are familiar with this model and you know how to fix these problems, contact me. My email is dariointernet (at) gmail (dot) com

Oh , it has a shure m75 needle and let me tell you ...it sounds AAAWWWSOME!!

See AND hear it in action below. I made this youTube video of the Dual 521 playing a 45rpm from 1979 by Italian artist Richard Cocciante singing his hit " io canto " in Spanish. It's a rarity and out of print.
