The Buy it Now price is for the full Turntable/Arm/Cartridge package. May sell just Turntable, make me an offer and confirm with message…
Condition, quite good, but are a few blemishes, please study photo’s. Considering it is going to be 50 years old this December, it’s not bad!
NO LID.
I am a Turntable enthusiast, not a Thorens TD150 expert, but I will tell you what I have done to it:Checked speed with RPM Phone app, and speed is spot on…
Replaced and filled to overflow, Bearing with Origin Live oil. I will lay some kitchen towel around the inner platter to try and stop as much oil escaping during transit, but its inevitable some will be lost..
New Rean RCA Connectors fitted to Arm, and new (generic) stylus on original Shure M55E Cartidge.
I have never owned a Thorens Kugel Tonearm before and felt some play in Bearing. I tried to eliminate the free play, but the Tonearm then didn’t float very well. I managed to find another Kugel Arm on eBay, and that turned out to be the same, so one can assume they are meant to be like that?
Hence, you may want to tinker with suspension, I have adjusted it, but it will probably go out once in transit especially as there is no transit screw fitted to these, and you may also want to tinker with Arm play?, but it works fine as it is……
