[QUOTE="MusicMan_ZA, post: 1083522, member: 14924"] I think many people will agree that the Thorens TD160 is a lovely turntable. Even a great turntable. In my opinion, the TP16 tone arm is excellent, and not always appreciated for how good it is/can be. (there are a few mods, e.g. removing the nylon string tracking force setting, and using purely the counterweight.) The magnetic anti-skate works very well. I have had a few of them, and the best (to MY ears) carts I have had on there were Shure M75ED and Shure M95ED. If I had to buy a new cart for a well-running TD160 with a TP16 arm today, I would get the Ortofon 2M Red (as a starter) or up the line... Just my :2c: [/QUOTE]
