    Andy you think you'll ever settle with a vinyl grinder?

    Well I've had the 301 & the 1210 for many years now. I've played around with a few decks including LP12, Rega's, Alphason solo, Thorens TD160, several 1210's. I've never had a Lenco before. The Thorens was nice but was never really meant to stay.

    Not having had one before is the best reason I can think of to try one

    I may buy another. I'd like to see what can be done with simple plinth etc but the PTP 6 project looks interesting altough there's not much left of the original gl75 when you've finished surgery.

    It's arrived complete with its dynatron tuner/amplifier. Dosen't look to be in bad nick and the TT spins. The tonearm appears in decent condition and has all the gubbins.

    So this is what the new project looks like.

    A close up.

    I dumped the dyantron amp, it didn't work. Four mounting nuts later and the Lenco is free.

    IMG_0378.jpg

    This is the heavy platter version. The deck is a reasonable early example in the 6500's.

    IMG_0379.jpg

    A quick check reveals I have the sort after 5 holed idler wheel.

    IMG_0380.jpg

    The deck power up and platter change speed accordingly when via the speed selector. I've not checked the tonearm but it has all the gubbins. I even managed to bag a Shure M75e MM cart (untested) . Now to source a plinth. This will form the basis of a Signature Lenco turntable project. I need to first go through a lot of reading to make sure I get the best out of this deck.

    I have a spare standard plinth or two Andy. No lids though.
    It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!

    Geoff,

    I'm thinking of maybe getting 2 '75s one a standard one and then really pimping one out. I'm after a birchply plinth.
