You got the same acoustic panels as me.

Looks like a double platter GL75 turntable in the mix! Bring it on!
Lovely setup ..iso acoustics pucks under the Beth's...a well executed setup!

What a nice collection of Croft gear you have there. Must sound exceptional?

I've not seen a double platter before can the motor take it ok? Or are they lighter ones?

Is that a MC step up on the pre?

Are there 2 croft power amps with seperate PSUs or are you quad monoblocing the Harbeths?

Thanks. They seem to work well enough.

I've been running two platters on the Lenco for about 10 years now without any ill effects on the motor.
I did upgrade the main bearing though to one availiable through the 'Lenco Heaven' forum. Which takes all the weight.

The Pre is a two box CRoft Micro 25 RS LS. (further upgraded) into which runs an MC Ortofon Cadenza Black.
The monoblocks are just a normal 2 box system. Left and right.
The other box is my RIAA R phono stage. Into which runs an Ortofon ST-80 SE SUT.
That's my 5 Croft boxes.
