Thorens

1883 - Thorens started as a family business, established in St.-Croix, Switzerland. Thorens was a flourishing musical box and movements manufacturing company. It had then become a prominant manufacturer of early phonograph motor-works.
Throughout its early years, many companies relied on Thorens for complete machines for resale and/or mechanical components. Still today, Thorens is still regarded as high-end audio turntables for vinyl and 78rpm gramophone records.

1883 and on - Manufactured parts and whole phonographs for other companies. These companies most likely put their own name on them.

1902 - Thorens manufactured their very own line of cylinder style phonographs.

1906 - Manufactured its first disc phonograph

1928 - Development of the first electric motor for phonographs.

1929 - Development of the first electric phono pick-up.

1943 - Production of the first record changer (Electric).
