Thorens TD 320
Vintage & classic turntables · 1984–? Discontinued
$400–$700 typical US used price
Thorens' 1980s mid-range flagship moved to a leaf-spring suspended sub-chassis and a quieter 16-pole synchronous motor with electronic speed switching. Built to a very high standard, it ran through Mk II and Mk III versions into the mid-1990s.
The best-built of the late Thorens suspended decks and a used-market sweet spot for German engineering.
Good to know
- No built-in phono stage — use an amplifier with a phono input or add a separate phono preamplifier.
- This is a used-market purchase. Ask about condition, originality and service history, especially the belt, bearing and stylus.
