Based on the historic TD 150, the THORENS TD 1500 Manual Two-Speed Turntable in high-gloss walnut combines manufacturing pedigree with modern precision. Featuring a belt drive and an incremental encoder-controlled and stabilized motor, the TD 1500 plays 33 1/3 or 45 rpm records and allows you set the speed electronically. A die-cast aluminum platter ensures smooth operation while the THORENS TP 150 tonearm and headshell is complemented by an anti-skate weight and preinstalled Ortofon 2M Bronze cartridge. Connect to components via RCA output or take advantage of balanced XLR outputs when using a compatible MC cartridge, available separately.
