I like the Thorens TD 160 Super. Not the stock 160, the Super had some nice mods done at the factory and it came armless. I loved the simple but elegant look of the table and while it seemed a little slower than the better tables it had a nice smooth presentation.

That is a nice looking little turntable. I did a Google search for the Thorens TD 160 Super and found these pictures:

Thats the one. Very hard to find used. It had a coated platter/heavier springs and a larger main bearing than the stock Thorens units.
