well. ...no you don't have to, but my argument would be is that so much of th original Leno that is so good that it's a sin to not take the rest of it away, a very good motor , a very good baring, a...

I have on a garrard 301 one of the icons of uni pivot tone arms, a hadcock. Very heath Robinson to look at but first rate sound,
However on a heavily modified lenco I have built and using as a...

Lenco is (relatively) the cheapest of the idler drive turntables to buy, and yes it does need a little more work to bring out the best in it.
However , if you put the work in you will have an...

You should have a switch on either side at the back of the amp, they are rotary switches and take the amp from pentode to try one there Iis another switch that'srroughly in between ......that's not ...

A modded Lenco with a well matched arm and cartridge will do much more than run rings around a Scottish springy thing ...pace rhythm and timing? The sondeck is left in the dust . Bass control....The...

I have one or two idlers including a 301 and to my ears , what makes good synergy is pairing it with a uni pivot tone arm. The 301 is famed for its tight fast bass and timing etc , and unipivots...

I haven't the money but that's half what they cost new, I highly recommend someone to look at these as they won't let you down in the looks and most definitely not in the performance category , you...

You are right Neil, it is down to skill and tools . I can't cut or drill a straight whole or cut a straight line to save my life but thanks to a piller drill and a good sliding chop saw I can do it...

Enigma are made ( slightly modded ) by inspire, a company that does mods on thorens,technics,and linn. Now I have only heard positive things about what they do until they produced the Enigma, it...

Hi Martin
Yes it is surprising that they work with kabers, but you do need the rell with them, I am not a fan of the linns but the synergy is very good.
A suggestion that I have is (if you can...

Your right about the 301 with jazz ! With a hadcock and an audio technical mm it sings beautifully ! To be honest I like it with all sorts of music, but I have to agree with you that as an all...

I have moded a few lencos and i am writing to tell you..........With the fundamental nature of idlers put into a well made plinth and good arm and cartridge combination the lenco will run rings...

I have a 301 that has been serviced and put into a solid plinth, to balance the sound out I put a audiocraft uni pivot arm on it. The results were very good indeed . I have a lenco gl75 that has been...

Have you found a pair? If so how much? First the bad news. .... I am not sure they would sell for the same money if they had the name Rodgers on them . Good news? If you want them for keeps you...

The linn has its following, part of there appeal is pace rhythm at timing......It doesn't appeal to me . Modded lencos may take some time and effort and money BUT they run rings around one of ivors...
