The Thorens
TD 105 semi-automatic high fidelity turntable incorporates advanced technical
features to afford true state-of-the-art. Performance.
It employs a
special Thorens suspension system for the floating chassis. The exclusive
Isotrack tone arm with precision bearing assembly and low-mass construction
enables optimum tracking characteristics to be realized with modern pickup
cartridges.
The TD 105
also employs a velocity-sensitive electronic shut off which raises the tone
arm, returns it to its rest, and stops the motor. The electronic shut off at
the end of a record operates without frictional contact with the tone arm,
ensuring precise performance and full protection of the record and pickup
stylus. All operating functions are
initiated by electronic switching keys which respond to a light touch of the
finger.
