Lenco L75, L78 derivatives, any good?

Hi, I'm a newbie to the Lenco movement, and have been browsing for a table. I've often run into L75 and L78 derivatives, such as the L75/S, but cant find much info on these other than being a DJ turntable. How do these compare to the standard models? If anyone has any other derivatives that they know of and what they feel about them, please let me know, I'm always a sponge for hi-fi knowledge.
Thanks everyone!

Thanks Jlin,
By chance, have you compared the two tables at all? I've been looking at some of them, but because of the mat and metal housing, it sure looks funky compared to the more sedate and stately black mat and wooden plinth. Its good to know that the mechanisms are basically the same. Do you know if it also maintains the heavier platter? Somehow, I thought buying a Lenco would be a relatively easy process, but didnt expect different models to appear, and prices to be on the higher side too.
Well, hope I get one soon.

Hi Jlin,
Thanks for all your info. I've spent the last several days poring over the site you mentioned, as well as others. Do you, or anyone else, know if the model numbers of the Benjamin and Bogen models were kept consistent with the Lenco versions, or am I completely off the mark, and the L75, L78 model numbers ARE the numbers used by the american companies? I posted this same question in the home despot thread, but wasnt sure if that was the right place.
