Gotta get me one of those, let a beautiful Fisher tubed tuner pass me by just a little while ago, and been kicking myself ever since :-(.The Ortofon M15E Super sounds soooo good, and the detail superb (on... | |
| Building high-end 'tables cheap at Home Despot II Hi Peter W, your ambitious beastie is looking to be Gorgeous in that wonderful veneer!! I have to say, that having lived with a one-armed Lenco for so long, and now having just finished my own two-armed Lenco, it feels so good to be home again. A ... | |
| Building high-end 'tables cheap at Home Despot II As more and more people send me their exotic tonearms for Idler-ization, and I get a few of my own, the more and more my already-enthusiasm for the Rega tonearms increases!! They also LOVE idler-wheel drives, where, like Hercules putting on his ri... | |
| Building high-end 'tables cheap at Home Despot II Eureka!!!! I found all my Maplenoll tonearm bits (stuffed in boxes all over the place) and will finally be building the Lenco-Noll I have been threatening to build Lo these many years. I have gone to all this trouble and planned this for so long b... | |
| Building high-end 'tables cheap at Home Despot II Well, up here the SME V has sailed away, and it has taken the Kundalini Effect along with it, and left me destitute and desperate. So I searched for a combo which could fill the new Void in my audio life, as the simply re-wired Rega RB-300 wasn't ... | |
| Building high-end 'tables cheap at Home Despot II Hyperbole?! WHAT hyperbole ;-)!?! Up here nuthin' going on but angels clustering in my living-room every night to get a taste of the Heaven they are away from on assignment for the moment.Hi Mario: I had warned against recorded rumble several time... | |
| Building high-end 'tables cheap at Home Despot II Hi Peter: the experiment was not mine, but reported by someone else on the Hi Fi World forum, and I am guessing the mass was nowhere near that of a Giant Lenco. This report is merely corroboration for what I have already heard: a LARGE improvement... | |
| Building high-end 'tables cheap at Home Despot II Hi Peter, that is some brilliant planning and beautiful representations of your new Lenco plate!! I would caution that the most dangerous source of noise is the motor/idler/platter interface, particularly the motor/idler as source of noise, then p... | |
| Building high-end 'tables cheap at Home Despot II Hi all: Up here I’ve been having adventures chasing the Kundalini Effect across a variety of components, thanks for the moment to the Lenco/SME V/Denon DL-103 matching. Now I realize the SME V is a pricey component, so for the foreseeable while, a... | |
| Building high-end 'tables cheap at Home Despot II Very nice work Peter! You'll have to continue to keep us apprised of developments, and fire me an e-mail when you come up with a price. However, I would like to see the old sliding speed selector thingie if at all possible.Hi Jim: I fill up to the... | |
| Building high-end 'tables cheap at Home Despot II Congratulations on your impending religious experience Nigel!! And just in time too, as I do believe I have a new and significant upgrade to offer all the Lenco-ers out there.Back when I had made the first "high-end" idler from cobbling together t... | |
| Building high-end 'tables cheap at Home Despot II I have to add my own admiration for a gorgeous plinth Kim. And what a MONSTER!! Just goes to show that patience is indeed a virtue ;-). Fascinating account as well, great reading! Too bad that beauty will be sailing away, good luck on the Russco p... | |
| Building high-end 'tables cheap at Home Despot II You are most definitely welcome Mario, and I forgot to thank Munkienl/Freek for the material in Jim's first and brilliant posting: thank you Freek! He was here (on the old thread) from the very beginning (along with Willbewill and a few others who... | |
| Building high-end 'tables cheap at Home Despot II I'd add that you need to first check that the wiring is correct (and of course the red transport screws are undone), as noise and vibration is a sign of improper wiring as well, in which case adjusting the armature (which is a very good idea in it... | |
