Thorens TD-160 Turntable: A Technical Masterpiece with Timeless Durability

The Thorens TD-160 is a belt-driven turntable, renowned for its innovative and technically advanced construction. At its core is a floating sub-chassis, suspended by three adjustable springs. This design allows the main bearing and pickup arm to be mounted on a shared platform, ensuring that the turntable platter and arm are rigidly coupled to a common, sprung chassis. As a result, both components operate independently of the plinth, providing exceptional isolation from feedback and significantly enhancing the fidelity of the deck.

The sub-chassis and suspension are meticulously engineered to achieve a lower centre of gravity. This, combined with the finely balanced mass stabilisation of the sub-chassis and outer frame, isolates the system from external noise and vibrations. The build quality of the Thorens TD-160 is exceptional, and when properly maintained, these turntables can provide a lifetime—or even generations—of unparalleled listening enjoyment.
