The TD 203 merges Thorens history of HiFi engineering with modern functionality and design. So many aspects of this turntable have been thought out for both performance and convenience. New users will appreciate the easy setup and operation, while advanced users will appreciate the array of fine controls adjustments (platter speed, belt tension, anti-skate, height, overhang / azimuth, easy to change cartridge). The new TP 82 unipivot tonearm is finely engineered and gorgeous, emphasized by the minimalist design of the body. Within the body, the TD 203 is powered by a DC motor which is fully decoupled using a rubber suspension. High quality bearings are used throughout (Bronze for the platter, carbide tip + 5 small bearings balls for the tonearm) to ensure smooth operation. "There's no overt added softening or warmth to the sound, clarity is the TD 203's big draw.." - The Audiophiliac, cnet KEY FEATURES belt-driven 15.75" (L) x 12.6" (W) x 3.65" (H) / 400 x 320 mm x 92.6 7.8 lbs / 3.53 kg COMES WITH dust cover RCA interconnects pre-mounted cartridge stylus gauge cartridge alignment protractor
