Thorens TD-350
A subchassis turntable of the new generation!
The revival of our unique subchassis-concept is starting with our new TD 350. The TD 350 represents the perfect symbiosis of a mass-drive and a subchassis turntable and unites the benefits of both technologies. Experience the rebirth of a unique technology with the most modern materials and the latest knowledge inside the TD 350!
We call it “IDD” (Independent Double Damping) and speak of the way the subchassis is suspended inside the massive wooden plinth. This kind of suspension damps the vibrations and excursions in the horizontal and the vertical completely independent of each other. In combination with our 9 lb heavy platter and the new low-friction bearing this drive has got such an incredible stable and calm rotation resulting in high resolution and big dynamics. The built-in electronic unit controls and stabilizes the speed exactly. Many more details of components of the TD 350 – such as the precisely manufactured belt, the diamondgroun platter with the bitumen coating on the groundside, the noiseless AC-synchronous motor, the excellent tone arm TP 250 – they all give their share to the outstanding sound of the TD 350.
As a long-play record maniac you can now forget all these technical details and concentrate on what is really important for you – the perfect music reproduction. Take your favorite records and you will again be fascinated and remember why you have always been a Thorens customer and why you will stay.
