"PrimaLuna Prologue 2.With upgraded tubes,some feet and a better PC-no need to look back"I agree..... 
Reason for buying old/classic turntables
"Lenco is wonderful turntable but far from engeneering marvels in the stock form."Don't know of any table that's an "engineering marvel". After all, its a platter that spins.........Guess I got lucky, and mine works.Happy holidays everyone... 
Help Me Justify Recent MMF7 purchase
Yeah, I need to chime in once more also. I'm not saying the MMF-7 is a bad table, it just didn't work for me.As others have said, relax, enjoy it.And welcome to the crazy world of analog playback......Bill 
Help Me Justify Recent MMF7 purchase
I have to agree with TVAD. I had a MMF-7.1 and couldn't get rid of it fast enough.... Once again, you asked... 
Reason for buying old/classic turntables
Well said Lew. I remember test driving some Triumph's, after working on them. Used to be a mechanic. Those thing's would just drift/float the curves.Fun times, as well as analog is.Merry Christmas everyone.Enjoy, both the holidays, and the music. 
Reason for buying old/classic turntables
I know what you mean Lew. My stock plinthed Lenco beat my other table hands down. True, nothing like what you had, but still. I'm not 100% convinced that one has to mount the Lenco in a "giant direct coupled" plinth. After cleaning, lubing and bol... 
Reason for buying old/classic turntables
I recently added a near pristine Lenco 75 to my system. It is in it's stock form sans the arm. I removed the springs and bottom board from the stock plinth and put brass cones under it. I removed the rubber grommets from under the top plate. I hav...

A well designed amp won't have fuses in the signal path. 
What's the Best LP You Bought in 2008
Since it's still 2008, I'll throw this one in also. I just received a copy of Shawn Colvin's first LP. Got it off fleabay. It was listed as VG++ for 5 bucks. I thought, what the heck. Well, it got here yesterday. Turns out, it was a sealed promo c... 
What's the Best LP You Bought in 2008
I have picked up many LP's this year as well. Most, if not all, not new releases. I was lucky to get a NM+ promotional copy of Robbie Robertson's first solo. Sound is fantastic. Also got a few Micheal Hedges that are also NM.Too many to list what'... 
Ortofon Per Windfeld Load Impedance?
I've followed this thread. At times, it was informative, humorous, and enlightening. Now, my question is; My Grado has a resistance of 2 ohms, they say to load it at 47K. Should I load it at 50 - 100?Think I'm going to go try it... 
using a stock Lenco L75 Turntable
The only thing I plan on changing on the one I just acquired is the arm. That's being kept under cover for the time being...... The one I just got, is as dead quiet as anyone could ask for. I too removed the springs and rubber, then screwed it dow... 
What is the difference between Lenco L-75 vs L- 76
If I'm not mistaken, the L76 is an L75 with an auto-lift at the end of the LP. 
How do you level your turntable?
Pied,I use the plinth because that's what the arm is mounted on, not the platter. Might not be the right train of thought, but it makes sense to me to level the surface that the arm is on. Example, say the platter is different from the plinth by a...
