Opinions on Thorens TD 2001, should I sell or keep


I like to hear from the owners of the Thorens TD2001 TT on what you think of the sound. I'm thinking about including it in my SF Line 1, Acoustic Signature - Tango Phono Pre, Monarchy SE100 Delux and Sonus Faber Concerto speakers. The cartridge is the Goldring - Eroica Cartridge.

I had one, sold it, and now wish I hadn't. I had taken off the Thorens arm and used it with an Alphason for two years, sold the Alphason, then when the TD 90 arm went back on, I couldn't get the cuing mechanism to work. In retrospect, the td 90 did not give away much in performance to the HRS100.

Certainly this table is far superior to the Linn LP12 that I acquired later - bass response in particular is far more natural (my son is a bass player). I have heard that the RDC platter improves the sound even more (I had only a brief audition). Definitely keep it, unless you plan to move to an unsuspended table (which is ultimately superio but less forgiving)
