Thorens TD520
3-Speed precision belt drive turntable fitted with 16-pole synchronous motor with 2-phase generator.
Available without a tonearm as the TD-521.
Description
The Thorens TD-520 is a worthy successor to the classic TD-126 mkII.
It is a more massive version of Thoren's twin solid core chassis design incorporating fine pitch adjustment and the new 12" TP-90 high precision tonearm.
It retains the 78rpm speed with electronic cueing and shut-off.
