Thorens BTD-12S

Description

The BTD-12S tone arm is a classic example of Swiss craftsmanship.

Designed for lowest possible inertia and friction, in both horizontal and vertical planes, the arm is ideal for pickup cartridges of the highest lateral and vertical compliance.

The low inertia of the BTD-12S minimizes force on the stylus from warped and off centre records, assures positive contact between stylus and record groove, and reduces distortion as well as record and stylus wear to a minimum.
