About the TD124 MkI with Ortofon ESL S1000 Gyro Balance
The Thorens TD-124 MkI is a renowned turntable introduced in the late 1950s. It features a belt/idler hybrid drive system, which was innovative for its time. The turntable is built with a die-cast Zamak chassis and includes a heavy cast iron sub-platter and a light aluminum platter. It supports multiple speeds and has provisions for 12-inch tonearms and 16-inch transcription disks. The Ortofon ESL S1000 Gyro Balance tonearm is a vintage choice that complements the TD-124's performance, though specific details about this arm are less documented compared to other models like the ESL S-2000.
