The CS 529 BT connects to exactly those without you having to give up the classic RCA connection — both paths work in parallel, and you decide case by case.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat you hear and get\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVia cable, the 2M Red delivers the same balanced, spacious sound as in the CS 429. Over Bluetooth with aptX HD, transmission stays pleasantly detailed for a wireless connection, even though a cable technically always has the edge for critical listening.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWho is the CS 529 BT suited for? (and who isn't it for — let's be direct)\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor anyone who sometimes wants to listen in the evening without cable clutter in the bedroom or on the terrace. If you're staying exclusively with a hard-wired system, the CS 529 BT means paying for a feature you'll never use — the CS 429 is enough for you.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eOur verdict\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTwo connection paths, one cartridge level: the CS 529 BT makes vinyl more everyday-friendly without forcing compromises on cable sound.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eTechnical data\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDimensions (lid closed): 435 × 367 × 145 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeight: 6.7 kg\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDrive: belt drive, DC motor with optical speed detection\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpeeds: 33 \/ 45 \/ 78 rpm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWow and flutter: \u0026lt; ±0.08% (DIN)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTonearm: fully gimbaled, 4 ball bearings, effective length 221.5 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCartridge: Ortofon 2M Red (pre-mounted)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePlatter: die-cast aluminum, Ø 305 mm, 850 g with mat\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBluetooth: version 5.2 with aptX HD codec, app remote control\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOutput: Phono\/Line switchable via RCA, plus Bluetooth output\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePhono preamp: built in, switchable\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDust cover: yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncluded: dust cover with hinges, platter with belt and rubber mat, tonearm headshell pre-mounted with 2M Red, centering puck, counterweight, RCA stereo cable, plug-in power supply\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does Bluetooth transmission work on the CS 529 BT?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe CS 529 BT transmits over Bluetooth 5.2 with the aptX HD codec to compatible headphones, active speakers, or a soundbar. The classic RCA connection remains available alongside it, so you don't have to commit to one or the other.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCan I also connect the CS 529 BT the classic way, via cable?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. The Phono\/Line output via RCA works independently of Bluetooth, including the switchable phono preamp. Bluetooth is an additional option, not a requirement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhich cartridge does the CS 529 BT have?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAn Ortofon 2M Red, factory-adjusted — the same one fitted in the CS 429. Bluetooth transmission inevitably compresses the signal somewhat; via cable, more fine detail is preserved.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWho isn't the premium over the CS 429 worth it for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor anyone who wires everything permanently and would never use Bluetooth. Then you'll start out cheaper with the CS 429 for identical sound.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy buy the Dual CS 529 BT at HD Zürisee?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBecause we show you how to sensibly combine Bluetooth and cable in the same system — streaming never has to be a must, your CD or vinyl collection keeps working independently of it.
