Thorens

Timeless Craftsmanship Meets Cutting-Edge Technology

Thorens, founded in 1883, started by manufacturing music boxes and musical works. In the early 20th century, they produced rollers phonographs and gramophones, expanding their product range to include harmonicas and lighters. The introduction of electric motors, magnetic pickups, and advanced tonearms marked significant advancements. Thorens gained worldwide fame in the 1950s with the TD 124 turntable and continued to innovate with the TD 150, TD 125, and TD 160 models. Mergers, restructuring, and the introduction of new series followed, accompanied by challenges in the 1990s. After a change in ownership, Thorens made a comeback in 2018, continuing its legacy of quality and introducing new models that pay homage to the brand’s rich history.

TD 309 WITH TP92 TONEARM

The TP 92 tonearm, which was specially designed for Thorens turntables, uses an ultra-low-friction bearing and an innovative magnetic anti-bias system with zero stiction. The arm tube is made from rolled aluminium that is damped using RMR (Reduced Modal Resonance) technology. The brass counterweight at the end of the arm tube is double-decoupled, and the tonearm is so designed that its centre of gravity is level with the stylus.
