From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Thorens is
a Swiss manufacturer of high-end audio equipment. They are historically renowned for the range of phonographs (turntables) they produce. In addition to audio playback equipment, they are also a historical producer of harmonicas and cigarette lighters, most notably the button actuated "automatic lighter". HistoryIn
1883, the Thorens family business was first registered in Sainte-Croix (Ste-Croix), Switzerland. An initial producer of musical boxes and clock movements, they started producing Edison-typephonographs in 1903. In 1928, they produced
their first electric (motor-drive) record player, and went on to produce a range of audiophile record players in the 1950s and 1960s which are, even today, regarded as high-end audio equipment, and are much sought-after. As of 2006, Thorens continues to produce well-regarded turntables for playback
of vinyl and 78rpm gramophone records. Company HeadquartersThorens Export
