Super new to record players


Hello all. I’ve just been gifted a Thorens TD 190. I need a new Stylist. Does anyone have any recommendations and a place where I can get it? Does anyone know how I can adjust the lid to stay open on its own? It keeps falling down. Thank

You either have to add a vertical post to hold it up or change the hinges to torque hinges.  I had an old Linn on which I used some of these and it worked perfectly and holds up a 5lb lid even at 30 degrees.  You can get even stronger ones from Sugatsune.
