Brand: Thorens

The Thorens TD125 mkII is a high-end turntable produced by the Swiss manufacturer Thorens. It is an upgraded version of the original TD125, featuring several improvements that enhance its performance and usability.The TD125 mkII is built around a belt-driven, low-torque AC synchronous motor that minimizes unwanted vibrations and ensures an ultra-smooth rotation of the platter. The motor is housed in a separate housing, which further reduces noise and interference.One of the most significant improvements of the mkII version is the newly designed subplatter that incorporates a TPE (Thermoplastic Elastomer) suspension system. This technology delivers a significant reduction in resonance and noise, resulting in a clearer, more detailed reproduction of the musical signal.The TD125 mkII also features a heavy, 31mm acrylic platter, which ensures a stable and resonance-free environment for the lacquer surface. The platter is fitted with a special reversible mat that provides a perfectly balanced sound response, regardless of the record's side.The turntable's tonearm is a straight-lined, statically balanced type, equipped with an SME-style main bearing housing. The tonearm offers exceptional tracking ability and has a low-friction bearing system that ensures absolute stillness while sensing the grooves.The TD125 mkII comes with a high-quality, fully manual switchable phono pre-amplifier that provides a clean, warm, and distortion-free sound. The preamp incorporates a high-quality PU (Polymer Ultra-low Noise) power supply that ensures a stable and clean power supply for the entire system.Overall, the Thorens TD125 mkII is a top-of-the-line turntable that delivers an exceptional performance for vinyl enthusiasts who demand the highest audio quality possible. It is an excellent choice for music lovers who value precision, detail, and timeless audio quality.
