The TD 124 DD uses "a 12-pole ... direct drive motor"—the quote is from Thorens press materials. That direct-drive motor replaces the original's most distinctive feature: a drive mechanism that utilized both a belt and an idler wheel
"The purist design and basic construction are based on the original," Thorens's press materials state. "The ... aluminum chassis now rests on vibration-damping elastomer elements whose viscosity is identical to the original's rubber 'mushroom' isolators." Also included in the package is a handsome plinth made from black-painted wood and a new tonearm, the TP 124
Listening to jazz vinyl on the Prestige, Blue Note, and Savoy labels was like a night out listening to live jazz: hard-plucked acoustic bass, pungent horns, and those visceral drums and cymbals, which aroused my inner 15-year-old drummer, who first rattled rudiments in marching corps.
Favorite records became new events, communicated in lush tones and big yet finely wrought images. The TD 124 DD/SPU 124 pairing made music that unfurled from my O/96 speakers in big, bold strokes of color and hypertexture
