Thorens TD 321 SME series iii

Thorens TD321 (SN: 15326) – classic suspended sub-chassis turntable, likely late-1980s production. Original walnut plinth in outstanding condition – a clean, elegant example of Thorens design. Equipped with the SME Series III tonearm – ultralow-mass, fluid-damped, and engineered for high-compliance cartridges. Precision bearings, adjustable damping, and lateral balance – ideal for extracting detail. Belt-drive system with stable AC synchronous motor – excellent speed consistency and low noise floor. Suspension intact and tuned; sub-chassis floats freely and maintains level. All-original components – no mods, no restorations, just pure vintage engineering. Optionally supplied with a brand new, boxed Shelter 201 MM cartridge (+€200) – 6.5mV output, 8.6g weight, elliptical stylus. The Shelter 201 is a perfect match for the SME III, offering detailed mids, tight bass, and wide staging. A reference-grade deck with true analog pedigree – Collection only.
