Housing:
The case base was made from solid pear wood. The surface is oiled and polished several times. The original tonearm base is repainted.
Absorber base:
Specially designed absorber base. The absorption of low frequencies and material vibrations takes place on two levels.
Level 1: On the top of the base there is integrated vibration absorption using 5 felt absorbers. An absorber is centered under the base plate and eliminates the negative vibrations of the often criticized sheet metal tray. Another 4 absorbers are located under the feet of the record player.
Level 2: 4 height-adjustable spikes made of chrome-plated stainless steel on the underside of the absorber plate.
This double absorption results in a significantly improved sound.
Suspension:
The plastic elements for adjusting and fixing the suspension were replaced by aluminum components.
Ortofon Vinyl Master Alpha pickup:
Very good beginner. Full-fledged pickup that harmonizes with many tonearms. Impresses with temperament and a neutral basic character.
Large power supply:
A new power supply unit is included in delivery. This power supply has twice the power of the original power supply. Performance bottlenecks and heating no longer occur.
Audio cable:
Branded cable. Ready-made analog audio cinch cable for cabling turntables! Thanks to the particularly high-quality inner conductor made of oxygen-free copper (OFC), this quality cable ensures true-to-life signal transmission. Contact security and corrosion protection are guaranteed by the 24 carat gold-plated plug contacts. The cable has a neutral sound with good dynamics and spaciousness.
Chrome-plated stainless steel spikes:
To ensure that the record player is decoupled from low-frequency vibrations, the chassis is equipped with height-adjustable spikes. Resonances and feedback are thus effectively prevented.
Drive belt:
This drive belt is manufactured according to the original Thorens specifications (same material and dimensions).
Record weight:
With a weight of 310g, it ensures that the record sits smoothly on the plate and runs smoothly. This record weight is in the middle weight class. It builds up just enough weight to dampen the vibrations of the record without putting any strain on the bearing bushes. The suspension of the Thorens sub-chassis has been readjusted accordingly. By using it, you increase the sound performance of your system.
