Selling a totally unmarked, mint, Lentec MC head amp, it still has its original (scruffy) box. This is the DIN plug equipped version, it would need an easily obtainable (or made) adaptor or alternative plugs for use into RCA Phono input sockets. This will require a PP9 battery fitted for use, but it is in excellent condition. I believe these are rather popular on AOS and various upgrade mods have been developed. Asking £70 delivered.

Oh, it's rather better than that Shane :lol:

The DIN cable is easily changed for a good low capacitance standard cable pair for RCA connection, as long as you can neatly solder of course and it's a great little item.

Oi you! ;)

Geoff, you should've linked to this discussion, in order to attract potential buyers: http://theartofsound.net/forum/showthread.php?8431-Nick-G-modified-Lentek-Head-Amp&highlight=lentek

See post #40 on page 4, in particular :)

Folks, the Lentek is very good in stock form, and wonderful modded, as I outlined in the thread above! It's also a FANTASTIC match, sonically, for a DL-103. If you've got a decent MM phono stage, then adding the Lentek is probably one of the cheapest ways in order to get a 103 to sing! :exactly:

My advice? Snap this little beauty up pronto before someone luckier than you gets it!!

Marco.

Heard some very good things about this in my list for sure. As I neither have an MC cart or a working turntable...
