Turntable Thorens TD 403 DD

With the new model Thorens TD 403 DD, the record player specialist complements the series of direct-drive plug-and-play turntables of the 400 series.

Visually a true Thorens, the new TD 403 DD has the same proven smooth-running drive as the successful TD 402 DD, but sets itself apart from its smaller brother with a more massive 1.4 kg and 22 mm thick cast aluminium turntable and the audiophile TP 150 tonearm also used in the new TD 1500 model.

A high-quality and pre-adjusted 2M Blue cartridge from the Danish cartridge specialist Ortofon is also supplied as standard. With its naked diamond and elliptical needle cut, it proves to be an adequate playing partner.

Newly developed Thorens TP 150 tone arm
The new TP 150 tonearm is also used on the newly introduced Thorens TD 1500 model and is similar to the TP 124 used on the new TD 124 DD. It has an effective mass of 14 grams, is adjustable in height and azimuth and is equipped with a standard SME connection, so that nothing stands in the way of changing the headshell or equipping it with a different cartridge.
The anti-skating is adjusted by a sliding weight in the base of the arm, which is adjusted on a nylon thread guided over a ruby bearing.
