I'm under taking a new Thorens TD 150 project. This is the second one of done, with the last one having excellent results. The difference with this one is that I am making an extended plinth and have added an Origin Live Advance motor. There is extensive use of carbon fiber being used for the top plate and arm board, as well, as damping material added to the chassis. Also bein used is a Grace G940 arm with a carbon fiber head shell and a custom phono cable. Here are a few shot prior to the final build, which should be complte by the end of the week. |

It's gonna be a little like one of those new-fangled EAT C-Sharp turntables with the carbon fiber plinth ... |
