Thorens TD 124 or TD 125 MK.

I recently attended an E-state sale. The owner who had passed.
I guess was somewhat of an Audiophile at least back in the 60s and 70’S as his setup dated based on the gear.
Model 7 Pre-amp with (2) Marantz Model 9 EL 34 tube mono amps.
Plus his 2 turntables which I bought.
QUESTION?? Please from high mileage analog stewards only on which one to keep and R/B..

Keep all of it.. There are two models of the 124s, and one of the 125 (I think). The 124 with non magnetic platter is the better one, Type II, I think.
The 125 is good, just not quite as eloquent as the 124s...

The Marantz stuff, is like gold. Marantz folks are worse than Mac guys. THEY are really stuck on name, not sound.... You got yourself quit a few nugget for sure... If they need work, use a good guy, ay... No cheap parts.. They deserve better. 

I've owned them all, still have all the Thorens though, great TTs
