Introducing the Thorens TD 403 DD Turntable: A New Benchmark in Hi-Fi

Thorens proudly presents the TD 403 DD Turntable, the latest addition to the esteemed 400 series of direct-drive plug-and-play turntables. Designed for audiophiles who demand precision and musicality, this model combines cutting-edge engineering with timeless design. With its impressive features and exceptional performance, the TD 403 DD completes the lineup in style.

Direct Drive Precision Meets Premium Engineering

At the heart of the TD 403 DD is a smooth direct-drive system that ensures speed stability and instant start-up. Paired with a robust 22mm-thick die-cast aluminum platter, this turntable delivers consistent RPM control and vibration-free playback. The inclusion of the same high-quality tonearm found on the new TD 1500 model elevates its performance to true audiophile standards.

Heavyweight Platter for Unmatched Stability and Quiet Operation

Compared to its counterpart, the TD 402 DD, the TD 403 DD takes direct-drive technology to the next level. Its massive die-cast aluminum platter, engineered for superior damping, minimizes unwanted vibrations and guarantees precise rotational control. This results in an exceptionally quiet and stable operation, allowing you to enjoy your vinyl collection with unparalleled clarity.

Audiophile Tonearm Design for Superior Tracking and Performance

The TD 403 DD features the newly developed TP 150 tonearm, also found on the TD 1500 turntable. With an effective mass of 14g, adjustable height, and azimuth settings, this tonearm ensures reduced crosstalk and improved channel separation. The standard SME connector makes cartridge swaps effortless, giving you flexibility to customize your setup.

Factory-Fitted Ortofon 2M Blue Cartridge for Exceptional Sound

To deliver outstanding sound quality straight out of the box, the TD 403 DD comes preloaded with the Ortofon 2M Blue cartridge. Crafted by the renowned Danish brand, this cartridge features a naked diamond elliptical stylus for precise tracking and reduced distortion. The result? A dynamic, detailed, and natural sound that brings your records to life.
