Re: I have a Thorens!

207.41.73.52

I just sold my thorens td147 for a VPI jr. with Rega 300 arm. Transferred over my Benz-Micro silver cartridge to the Rega. The sound difference??
"Oh my God" came out of my lips. What a sonic improvement! I thought the thorens was good, but the bass and the soundstage were now so clear, so refined. Separation was improved and depth was dramatically increased. Highs were there with no sign of hardness. (I did not think the highs were hard with the thorens, but in comparison with the vpi, they were.) For the $900 I paid for this setup, it was well worth without a doubt. I am approaching true high-end analog playback at a fraction of the cost. Check it out.
