You are now the proud owner of a THORENS turntable.
You have purchased a high-quality component that has been designed to afford many hours of listening pleasure.
The THORENS TD 146 and TD 166 MkII Turntables are precision instruments which, with reasonable care, will deliver optimum reproduction quality and protect your records for years to come. The auto-stop feature and the lifting mechanism of the TD 146 enable faultless reproduction to be combined with the convenience of automatic end-of-play shutoff.
In order to prevent improper operation, which could impair reproduction quality or lead to damage of the turntable or of a valuable record, we with to advise you to read this instruction manual completely before unpacking the turntable and putting it into operation.
This recommendation is of particular importance when the unit has been purchased with an empty cartridge wand and a pickup cartridge must therefore be installed.
