THORENS knows how to build high quality tumlables meeting the
speclllc needs at every user. and in tact since the existence of
records.

Flebility and long term maintenance oi the original characteristics
renlr tlret in the Companys rules.

The new TD 535 protessional transcription turntable has been
developed by THOHENS exactly in this way. tor broadcasting
studios and dlscotheques.

Shortest run-up time

A direct drive motor oi European make. improved according to THO-
RENS' specifications and controlled by a costly electronic circuit.
accelerates the zinc'aluminium turntable platter to reach the 33]: rpm
speed in less than 0.5 second. This exceptional value is exceeded
only by the more expensive TO 524 model. also manulactured by THO-
RENS.

The motor has a high torque so that slip-mats or record cleaning devices
with dragging action can be used without problem.

The nominal speed is quarz controlled.

Anti-lesdbacit suspension

The low lrequency sound waves. loved by Grace Fans. generally cause
serious teedback problems in discolhoques. Not so with the TO 535:
A new. genial floating chassis suspension is combined with the last
starting direct drive system in such a way that the suspended chassis
remains tree oi rotational vibrations during the acceleration process.
The THORENS floating chassis suspension isolates the platter - tone
arm assembly from external lootlall and low lrequency sound waves
This association pi a direct drive system with a lloating chassis sus-
pension is unique and helps solving all location problems in disco
theques and broadcasting studios.

Vario Control

An easily accessible sliding pitch control permits a +/- 15 % variation ol
the nominal speed. [in important leature tor disoothoquos and dancing
schools.

Heavy duty. high quality TP 90 tone arm

For optimum in tracking ability it is not sulticient that a tone arm has a
low bearing friction. it is much more important that it has a low eitectrve
mass. because high mass prevents the stylus from lollowing the impor-
fections (warp or ripple) oi the record as it Shauld do.

Precision bearings are used in this professional arm. making it insensi-
tive to shock and reugh handling.

A high precision screw-coupling otters the laciiity at a plug-in shell
Without adding any importections to the resonance characteristics at the
tone arm.

The TP 90 has been designed in web a way that none at its elements
produce any perturbing sell-resonances. Such resonances alter the
sound quality and modily the timbre ol the instruments.

in addition to the optimization at all components, the tone arm as a
whole has been harmonized for a great robustness and a total sound
neutrality. It will match ideally with almost every cartridge

Quality and durability
