Thorens TD 309 is an excellent, innovative turntable

Thorens are one of the oldest names in the turntable industry, manufacturing their first phonograph in 1903 and their first electric turntable in 1928. The Swiss company is mostly known for the sturdy, easily-modifiable turntables that they produced throughout the 1970s and 80s, but a few of their recent turntables demonstrate that the Hi-Fi pioneers are still in the business of excellence through innovation.

The Thorens TD 309 turntable is one of their most remarkable new turntables, using a three-point balance system to stabilise the plinth while ensuring excellence isolation from external vibrations. Without delving too deep into the abyss of specifications and techno-jargon, it suffices to say that the TD 309 builds upon the century-spanning developments of Thorens and will get the absolute best out of your vinyl collection.

It wouldn’t be right to talk about the Thorens TD 309 without mentioning its superb aesthetic design. Visually the TD 309 is somewhat akin to an arrowhead, striking an impressive image much as an arrow strikes down opponents. The TD 309 is available in a range of gloss and matte finishes, and is sure to find a space in your home as a visual centrepiece or simply as a provider of masterful audio.
