    I like the Lenco top plate and there's nothing much wrong with it that can't be sorted by filling in the open areas with two part resin mix. This strengthens the top plate and reduces resonances. Imo getting the arm off the top plate and onto the plinth is probably the biggest gain. A twelve inch arm also means a bigger plinth so more mass which is better still. The motor will never be absolutely silent. Just one of those things you have to live with.

    all the gaps have been filled. I've already done a 12" tonearm and heavy plinth build and your correct with regards mass. The top plate resonates like a bugger compared to my 301.

    I can understand the Lenco top plate being more resonant than the Garrard. What did you use to fill in your top plate?

    Its pretty inert but as I said when compared to the 301 it's not cracking.

    Well that's it, the Speed Controller is now under construction, no turning back now! The Shure M55E and new JICO stylus sounds fantastic on the 301 let's hope this can continue over onto the Lenco. Just the tonearm now and then I've done for now. I'm looking forward to putting the 1210 and the 301 away for a while and just getting used to the sonic characteristics of the Lenco.

    Funny thread... As a long time Lenco fan, Lenco Référence and Lenco Heaven forums member, I have to smile when I read that some AoS inmates seem to think that a Lenco L75 is a kind of rudimentery tool for Neanderthal men...

    And I impatienly wait for the moment when someone is going to write that a properly modified Lenco L75 (or L78 for that matter) runs rings around that springy Scottish thing, what do you call it, Lynn Sundeck, or whatever...
