The Thorens TD 102 A is a fully automatic turntable designed for easy operation and modern system compatibility. It uses an internal belt drive, an electronically controlled DC motor, and a carbon TP 72 tonearm, and it comes preinstalled with the Audio-Technica AT-VM95E cartridge. The built-in phono preamplifier is switchable for MM use, so the table can connect directly to powered speakers or an amplifier with or without a phono input. It is available in black high gloss and walnut high gloss finishes.
