Modified Lenco vs TW Raven

Thank you, it helps. So what would be a top TT that do all you describe in your post ?

Thank you for your opinions. I don't want to change only for having a new toy.
I still have my Air Tight ATM3 for nearly 20 years now and don't need to change. That's why I ask on the Agon if some of you made this experience and has a knowledge about these particular turntables.

Thank you for these answers.
Any other opinions or experiences ?

No not yet
I just wanted comparative opinions. Some says the 3 motors TW is in between a belt and an idler wheel in listening sensations and feelings. I don't know what it means exactly but try to imagine

Hello Sunnyboy,

Thank you for this interesting post. Maybe now I can make a better idea with a Nantais mkIII modified Lenco against my own Raven AC 3 (3 motors in a round shape and battery PSU).
These modified idler drive seems to be a winner against more conventionnal TT based purely on musical pleasure ?

Hello,

Thanks for the post. I'll check about all that. I'm not in a hurry and I think it is a good thing when you want to limit mistakes...
Please without telling bad things, what are your other exotic TT ?

Great stuff
Thanks

As I go further in the idler TT I see another Lenco restorer in the name of Artisan Fidelity.
Do anyone tried one of hid Lenco ? It seems the Achates AF and Nantais new Ref are in the same price range.

I just look at your system and the Lenco is good looking.
I'm not a skilled man but it gives me will to try this road myself too. When you do something yourself it can be gratifying.
As a basic buyer it's hard to imagine a simple man can do something that sounds as good as something made by a "professionnal". I know ot can seem silly but I'm sure I'm not the only one to think this way.
i have to change my mind.

I have listenned a lot of live music, especially classical because it is my preferred one.
For that I am lucky enough to live in an important city where there is an intense artistic proposal. Some audiophile don't have the same possibilities and I don't want to make them ashamed not knowing what is the "real" sound of instruments and voices on live event.
Everyone can have his (her) own references and is in his right to judge what he is listenning whatever his reference is.

Hello,

thank for the answers. Dorkwad can you tell me about the differences between the Lenco 78 and the L 75 model ?
About Synergistic research I ordered some ECT not received yet. Do you have some ?
For the room acoustics I have the Stein Music H2a and H2b + stones and Diamonds and very happy with that. Stein are less expensive here in Europe and Holger Stein is a very kind person humble and honest. The first time I asked him 2 H2a an b for a try I received a crate with much more than I asked for (cables ; speaker match, Epads, Maestro laquer, ans Super Naturals feet). I had at least one month for trying all that at home wituout anybody telling you what to her...
Great. Some thing I kept some others not. He never moan about that. He is just curious to know what you think and never criticised your opinion in any way : relaxing.
