Thorens TD-240-2 Turntable-Walnut

Thorens are arguably one of the most well-known brands on the hifi market today, having developed countless award winning turntable models to a superior standard for years. The TD-240-2 model builds upon this extensive reputation for quality, and follows the same design philosophy of offering an authoritative turntable at an accessible price.

Constructed from high quality materials, and in the form of a classic design, the TD-240-2 looks and operates as lovely as it sounds. This fully automatic turntable makes use of a large, dense and stable plinth built from real wood. This is available in a piano lacque, black crackle, or a light walnut finish to retain the timeless image as well as act as a solid, anti-resonant base for the entire process of playing back vinyl. 

The tonearm used by the TD-240-2 is the newly developed TP 19-1, built by Thorens, and utilises a high quality Audio Technica AT-95 cartridge. The belt drive operates below the main platter of the turntable at an essentially silent level to ensure a precise and untampered playback. Setting up and connecting the TD-240-1 is effortless, meaning the unit is ready pretty much from unboxing.
