Best place to source Lenco spares

[gangof4]

Hi guys,

I recently sourced spares for my 301 from Classic Turntable Company. The quality of the spares is top quality. I was wondering what is the best place to buy spares for my Lenco L75.

During my pre-Garrard times when I was using the Lenco L75, I used to source parts from Audio Creative Shop in The Netherlands. I would say that they are like the Classic Turntable Company with very high quality work. However I must mention that I have never used their international shipping as those were the times when I used to roam around in the EU, quite a lot. I must say that their idler wheel is of the highest quality. I was using it on my deck and it was dead silent and accurate. It was a bit expensive though, 50 Euros a piece in those times. When my L75 moved out, it went together with all its stock parts (including tonearm) and I retained the replacement ones including the new spring kit, v-blocks for the tonearm and gifted them to a very close FM friend.

Note: I am not a PTP fan and hence never took that route. Also, the unique aspect of the Lenco world is that it is so very customized with so many DIY options, there are so many out there doing such great stuff, that one would not really need to find a super-specialist parts or service provider. The options out there are many more, compared to Garrard.

Thanks. Will check out Audio Creative. This is the same Audio Creative that makes those great tonearms, right? The Groovemaster.

Yes, its the same place, but I haven't tried their tonearms though. I was introduced to them by the same German gentleman who sold the L75 to me.

Which part(s)?

Will get to know once Naren Halankar has checked it out. He is working on my 301 at the moment. But idler is definitely a thing I will upgrade.
