The aim of the development was the optimal \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ecombination of the pick-up in combination with the TD 1600\/1601 turntable and the TP 92 precision tonearm. With an output voltage of 0.6mV (5.5cm\/sec) and 12 ohms internal resistance, the pick-up harmonises with all common phono preamplifiers. A naked diamond with line contact cut in combination with a solid boron cantilver guarantee best pickup capability and sound quality.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe TD 102 A opens a completely new chapter in the field of fully automatic turntables from THORENS. The newly developed mechanism of the TD 102 A guarantees the lowest possible frictional resistance of all mechanical components.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe unit comes with an also newly developed carbon tonearm, including the preassembled AT VM 95 E cartridge system from Audio Technica, the successor model to the AT 95 E, which has been known and favored by vinyl-friends for many years. The switchable integrated phono preamplifier guarantees full connectivity with all modern audio systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe TD 102 A is available in surfaces \"black high-gloss\" or \"walnut high-gloss\", with care being taken during the development phase to emphasize the typical THORENS design. A high sound quality and a long service life complete the typical properties as you have been used to from THORENS for many years.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"columns\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"column\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"section--title\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"columns\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"column\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"prod-tech-wrapper\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"description-wrapper\"\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMounting 1\/2” centers \/ Threaded inserts\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFrequency Response: 20 - 50,000 Hz\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBody Aluminium\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eChannel Separation: 28 dB (1 kHz)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eOutput Channel Balance: 0.5 dB (1 kHz)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eOutput Voltage: 0.4 mV (1 kHz, 5 cm\/sec)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eVertical Tracking Angle 20 degrees\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTracking force, recommended: 1.8 to 2.2 g (standard 2.0 g)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eStylus Shape Special Line Contact\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eStylus Size: 1.5 x 0.28 mil\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eStylus Construction Nude rectangular shank\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCantilever 0.28 mm Ø nude boron\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCoil Impedance: 12 Ohms (1 kHz)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCoil Inductance: 25 μH (1 kHz)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDC Resistance: 12 Ohms\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eStatic Compliance: 22 x 10 – 6 cm \/ dyne\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDynamic Compliance: 18 x 10 – 6 cm \/ dyne (100 Hz)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTerminal Pins Brass\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWire Used for Coil PCOCC (Copper by Ohno Continuous Casting process)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eRecommended Load Impedance min 100 Ohms\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCartridge Weight: 8.2 g\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"et_pb_column et_pb_column_2_5 et_pb_column_5  et_pb_css_mix_blend_mode_passthrough et-last-child\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"et_pb_module et_pb_text et_pb_text_5  et_pb_text_align_left et_pb_bg_layout_light\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"et_pb_text_inner\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Thorens","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53214410211635,"sku":null,"price":1695.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0873\/0293\/0739\/files\/THORENSTAS1600CARTRIDGE-VINYLSOUND_1600x_65748004-9f0c-4c68-a482-b2eebd17aac9.webp?v=1775704983","url":"https:\/\/vinylsound.com\/products\/thorens-tas-1600-cartridge","provider":"Vinyl Sound USA","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
