Thorens TD 1601 TP 160 black

Manual Record Player with Sub Chassis

• The TD 1601 is the logical further development of the TD 1600 in the direction of extended ease of use
• Features a classic wooden frame, the two-part turntable with internal belt and thick rubber mat, an elaborately controlled motor, armrest and acrylic cover.
• The three springs of the sub-chassis do not hang from the top board, but stand on the floor
• A tensioned steel cord prevents lateral wobbling in the extension of the motor pulley - disc axle axis and thus ensures a piston-shaped swing of the sub-chassis even when starting up, when the motor power is at its strongest and the belt pulls sideways on the disc axle
