[QUOTE="shrek, post: 469402, member: 14296"] Thanks Skollie,... The 301's are indeed beautifully competent machines, and yes, the Lencos are not at that level to start off with. However, due to their ingenious design and if treated like a motor unit exclusively, much like the Garrards, then IMHO exactly the opposite happens, and they truly can become superb machines. I normally remove anything and everything superflous. In the end all I'm left with is the motor, a new "o-ring" metal idler wheel plus arm, speed change lever, main bearing and platter, as well as an [u]extreme[/u] cut version of the original stamped out chassis. Then set them on a solid baltic ply plinth, with a tone arm of my authorship, and, these things can "sing" like very few others. Honest. [/QUOTE]
