Thorens New TT

THORENS New Reference
A lot of people say the thorens prestige was the better turntable as the reference. Heavier platter ,better suspension.

Looks good not so overdressed,let's see if we can listen to the new ones in a private setting. I'm excited
 
Got it, quite exciting!
And sorry to ask, but can you confirm the retail pricing and whether it's with tonearm/etc? Thanks

The RRP in Europe is 220k€ including two tonearms. 1. THORENS TP160 12“ version with knife edge bearing and silver wires. 2. Thiele TA01 Reference tonearm. A third tonearm can be added.

At the High End Show we will show it with 3 tonearms. The third will be the Reed T5.

The Goldmund amps have been upgraded to Reference preamp and Telos 8800 x4.

Tonearm is SAT CF-9 Ti top model, but the armboard has to be modified to suit the ride height for SAT. It is now not tall enough.

Is that your system?
