Very very very rare Thorens CD-53 changer

[kuruvilajacob]

Dear Forum members,

I got a very rare Thorens Symphony CD-53 changer . I still have to get its platters and spindles. I hope I get them. They were made in the 40's and the one I got is traced to it's original owner(who is no more). He paid Rs.1500 in the 40's for this player. It is unique that it plays both sides of the record. I hope I will be able to get the missing parts so that I can get my friend to put it together. If you want to see its working , you can check Thorens CD-50 on u tube. I will attach pics shortly

Just watched the video on Youtube, fab. Feels great to see such a product from Thorens.

Amazing, the arm turns turtle and plays the record up-side down
