Hi Steve,

I've just edited your post and thread title, as the Lentek is a moving-coil cartridge head amplifier, i.e. an active device, not an SUT (step-up transformer), which is a passive device and a very different thing :)

Good luck on finding one, and I shall keep my ears open for you too, in case I hear of anyone selling a Lentek :cool:

Marco.

I've got one you can borrow for the medium term (i.e. several months at least), if you like, Steve.
I don't want to sell it 'just in case' but I have no plans atm to use it.

Just PM me your name/address and I can post it Saturday if you wish. :)

Result. Nice one, Jerry :thumbsup:

At least Steve will be able to listen to one in his system and ascertain whether its for him. When you take delivery of it Steve, do let us know how you get on :)

Has it been modded by Nick or anyone else Jerry?

No, I don't think so,
It was a normal eBay purchase, iirc.

I only ask because I wonder if a modded Lentek sounds better than standard. My Lentek has been sympathetically modded in that caps were replaced like for like, the RCA's were replaced with something a little upmarket and a decent earth lead was added.

By inclination I am not a modder and would be reluctant to buy modded kit.
As a boxswapper, I think it makes it harder to sell on outside the quite small modding community.
But that's just me. :)

Hi Jerry. That is really kind of you. However, it looks like I may have tracked one down.
