Vacuum platter: The TD1600 features a vacuum platter, which is designed to reduce vibrations and improve the turntable's stability by creating an air-tight seal around the platter.2. Dual chassis construction: The TD1600 has a dual chassis construction, with the heavy plinth made of MDF material separated from the ground glass platter by a floating sub-platter. This design yields an exceptionally low-resonance turntable, ensuring that the listening experience is clear, detailed, and vibration-free.3. TP14 1/2 bearing: Thorens uses a special TP14 1/2 bearing for the TD1600. This precision-engineered the bearing features a jewelled top wall that results in an ultra-low-noise transmission of torque from the motor to the platter.4. Belt drive: The TD1600 features a belt drive, which effectively isolates the motor vibration from the fragile platter. This means that the motor's vibrations won't affect the sound quality, thanks to the low-induction™ AC motor’s electrical and mechanical filter and power supply filtering.5. Electronic speed control: Another high-tech feature of the TD1600 is its digital electronic speed control. With this technology, the turntable's speed is incredibly stable and controllable, making it easy to find the right rhythm when playing vinyl records.6.
