I have finally sourced a nice Thorens TD 160 Mk11.
 
Any ideas where to source a new drive belt from?
 
And an adapter to mount a Rega arm?
 
Adrian.

LP Gear in the states!

They've been supplying TT belts to individuals and trade worldwide for the past 16 years.

You could try a hi-fi dealer who should be able to "make" a new belt from stock material. They would probably need the turntable to do this though. Have you tried searching for Thorens drive belts on t'internet? This was the first result I found  http://www.supaprice.co.uk/p/result.jsp?ga=uk6&q=thorens+belt
The dealer who supplied my Pink Triangle Tarantella made a new belt for me and fully checked over the deck and reset as necessary. That was someone who actually worked for PT when they were around.
