Lenco L75 turntable info?


I am wondering have any Audiogoners purchased one or other model Lenco's and have yet to build a new plinth or change arm, but are listening to it in stock only?

I am using a Goldring Lenco GL75p in original stock condition. The only changes made are replaced GL spares `V' blocks and the foam inserts to the springs under the plinth. The only modification is a strip of foam rubber through the jockey wheel's spring tensioner, not that there were any issues, just making sure. the main cartridge used is an Ortofon VMS20E MkII. This deck runs SILENTLY, it drives a Quad 34/306 into Mission speakers. It sounds almost as good as listening to a real live performance. I've always said that if you want to evaluate a hifi's performance, you should listen to a live rendering of what you're playing, not how `warm' it is, or how transparant, but how near it is to the real thing. My GL gets pretty near.
