Thorens TD 202
Ready-to-use turntable with a cartridge and built-in RIAA amplifier
The TD 202 is a delightful turntable from the renowned brand Thorens, easy to use, featuring a built-in phono pre-amplifier, and truly bringing back the heyday of the vinyl format! A turntable's sound quality is determined by how well it tracks the 'vibrations' embedded in the records, and with the TD 202, Thorens has added extra mass to the plinth to minimize these vibrations as much as possible. With the built-in phono pre-amp module, you can use the turntable with speakers or an amplifier that doesn’t have a dedicated phono input, but you also have the option to bypass it if desired.
Thorens TD 202 plays musically and vibrantly, delivering the delightful analog sound that the LP format naturally provides. The tonearm and cartridge, the AT-95E, are of high quality and come from the Japanese specialists at Audio Technica, ensuring excellent sound quality and long-lasting durability. The Thorens TD 202 features a sleek, high-gloss black finish and a stylish, spring-mounted lid that can remain half-open. Additionally, it offers mechanical switching between 33 and 45 RPM, so you don’t have to manually move the belt to another pulley. You can find a wide selection of turntables here.
