Just so I can enter the contest, my Lenco is seated in a 65-lb slate plinth. The Lenco bearing is long gone, replaced by a massive aftermarket bearing made by someone called Jeremy in the UK. The platter has been spray painted with a dampening material. The Lenco tonearm is a piece of history along with the original plinth. Currently using a Dynavector DV505. The motor is driven by a Phoenix Engineering Eagle power supply that is speed-regulated by a PE Roadrunner tachometer. The only Lenco parts are the modified platter, the idler wheel, which I prefer to the various aftermarket idler wheels for its lighter mass, the idler arm, and the motor itself. All those Lenco parts came from an NOS OEM Lenco L75 that I was able to source from Canada in its original box unopened, for $500. Just because my total investment in this kit is probably less than the cost of a refurbished EMT DD or idler does not convince me it is not as good as or maybe better than some of those EMT options. But I am in no position to make such a claim, not having heard an EMT. What I wonder about is the EMT tonearm and the built-in phono stage, which was early era transistor technology. The Lenco drives a Manley Steelhead, with slight mods by me.
