Beschreibung
PLEASE NOTE THIS IS COLLECTION ONLY FROM EAST YORKSHIRE This is my Dad's Thorens TD 160 turntable, bought in the early 70s I believe, could even be 1972 when l was born. It's been in the family since then and I grew up listening to my first and formative music on it too. It has an Ortofon M15 E super cartridge and a needle. I haven't connected the deck to an amp so can't confirm the quality of the sound, but it spins at 33 and 45 rpm setting and the lever works well to move the belt up and down when plugged in. It got put away in a cupboard, nice and dry in the 90s as CD players took over. The lid is in tact and in pretty good condition, no cracks or major scratches. Some small chips on the front edge and a scuff on one of the sides but considering most lose their lids or have cracks this is good. The plinth has a Tandberg badge which I think is some limited collaboration with the Norwegian firm Tandberg. The wood shows some patina, well it shows wear - see pics but would be easy to restore if you wanted but I guess some would like the ageing. Horses for courses. I fitted a UK 3 pin plug to test it spins. I would remove this prior to collection as I think it would need some more modern 2 core flex and it's your call as to how you want to wire it. You can see the pics of the interior workings which look immaculate and I made sure to put the base cover back on in exactly the same screw holes. I looked for a sticker or serial number, but suspect there was probably a Thorens silver sticker on the deck with this on but my Dad probably removed it to make it look sleeker/cleaner. It's collection only and I live in East Yorkshire near Goole/Howden, so please factor that in and it's factored in the price. I think these are too precious to let a courier chuck around no matter how well packed or labelled fragile. No offence to the good ones. I would suggest if you know all about this sort of stuff you'd replace the cartridge anyway and belt and sort a service. Please see my feedback for buyer confidence. I take pride in my feedback and making sure people are happy. It is sold as seen and not as immaculate pristine model and as mentioned my benefit a service and new carriers he and belt or it may be fine. This is also reflects the price Thanks for reading.
