Thorens TD 2030

Thorens TD 2030 ... acrylic or clear acrylic / The new Thorens Acrylic Series looks as though it comes straight out of the future: transparent, gleaming, and flawless. A work of art. The Acrylic Series continues our 100-year tradition of turntable construction. It combines our great experience with the latest manufacturing techniques to offer you outstanding performance and a unique design. The TD 2030 never fails to surprise: the elaborate sandwich construction produces unrivalled sound quality. But that's not all: seen from above or from the side, the 1 1/4" thick acrylic chassis has a warm blue gleam, yet from the front it is clear and transparent. A new 1 1/2" thick alloy turntable platter weighing over 14 lbs rotates in its proven silent-run bearing. The already favorable properties of the acrylic are considerably enhanced by the sandwich construction of the chassis. It gives the 34 lb TD 2030 unparalleled stability and a sound completely free of resonance.
