| Do enzymes only live for 8 hours Doesn't seem to make a lot of sense. If the enzymes they use are only good for 8-10 hours, why wouldn't they "die" sitting in the bottle before they even get to you? | |
| Building high-end 'tables cheap at Home Despot II I have a couple of Lenco platters, one has ridges around the rim inside and the other doesn't. No way you could design a "universal" Lenco motor using rim drive, you'd have to drive the underside of the platter. But the other question about the Ga... | |
| Lenco , With Rega geometry is there some thing The original Lenco arm has an effective length of about 229 mm, so if you want to do a minimum amount of cutting you need to look for arms of the same length. This includes the Audioquest, Hadcock, Linn, Mayware and Mission arms. The Rega arm has ... | |

| Best bang for the buck turntable? If you're willing to DIY, a modified Lenco can sound very good - less than $1K but you'll have to build your own plinth. See the Building High End Tables cheap at Home Despot II thread elsewhere under Analog. The original thread reached well over ... | |

With your current equipment, probably the simplest thing to do is to plug the Linn arm output into you... | |

| Building high-end 'tables cheap at Home Despot II Boy, it's been dead around here :-). Just a quick note about the original Lenco arm, in case anyone is still using it instead of tossing it in the trash. In Stereophile Vol. 2, they published a reprint of an article from Hi Fi Sound (British) whi... | |
| Building high-end 'tables cheap at Home Despot II Jean,Also, do you fill it up to the brim, or just to the height of the built in screw holes for the four 4 mm bolts? Enquiring minds want to know! :-)Jim | |

| Lenco 75 versus Garrard 301? Unfortunately, Albert's posts were in the now deleted Audiogon thread. If you check on the Home Despot II thread there is a link to someone who saved the thread but there are over 3500 posts to the entire thread so that's a lot of reading. Since h... | |

| Lenco 75 versus Garrard 301? Re: the Schroeder reference and 4yanx's comments, I haven't even laid eyes on one, let alone heard one, but it IS worth noting that Schroeder uses a Garrard 301 as his reference table so in fact it should work extremely well with the Garrard or th... |
