I am sure that Dr Kaneta is one of the great geniuses of all time, in the category of an Einstein. That wasn’t my point. Apologies to his family if I did not pay heed to his seminal contributions to audio. I would still credit Steve Dobbins with explanting the SP10 Mk3 motor assembly, although the idea to do it was already “in the wind”. Peter Reinders is a great guy who was uncommonly generous some years ago in openly sharing his design for both the PTP Top Plate and the use of a slate plinth and how to cut it for a Lenco. Slate was later replaced by Corian in the commercial version of his plinth. Thanks to Peter, I was able to commission the construction of a slate plinth for my Lenco, using the first commercial version of his top plate.
