Thorens TD 1600 Noyer Inclus Tas 1600
The Thorens TD 1600 Walnut Including TAS 1600 is a Belt Drive Vinyl Turntable + Cartridge - Walnut finish.
Return of the Thorens DNA
The Thorens TD 1600 turntable combines the brand's tradition of the past with the technology of the 21st century. Although it looks like the old and famous 160 series on the outside, with its classic wooden plinth, two-piece platter with thick rubber matting and acrylic dust cover, it incorporates many innovations on the inside.
The Thorens TP 92 tone arm: unrivalled stability
The Thorens TD 1600 is equipped with a 9" (232.8 mm) Thorens TP 92 tone arm. The horizontal bearing of the TP 92 arm is a high precision ball bearing located under the tone arm tube at the same level as the diamond for better stability. The counterweight, decoupled by two rubber rings, is also at the same level. The Thorens TP 92 tone arm tube is made of high quality cold forged aluminium. During the design of the arm, a laser vibrometer was used to analyse the resonances of the tube, allowing Thorens engineers to target specific frequencies and thus ensure almost no unwanted vibrations.
Elegance and performance combined
The Thorens TD 1600 has been specifically designed to ensure that your favourite vinyl records are reproduced faithfully and accurately. With virtually no background noise and a stable, even platter rotation, it allows you to rediscover all the details and sound dynamics that characterise vinyl. With its exceptional sound quality, the Thorens TD 1600 will fit perfectly into audiophile systems and provide hours of quality listening.
