What tt 's have you sold after getting a Lenco?

I'm intrigued to see what happens here. Since Johnnantais's monster thread has been running for 2 years i feel it would be great to see what turntables people have put to one side after having replinthed and re-armed a Lenco. There have been, I know, some very expensive TT's sold to make way for a Lenco.

I personally replinthed a Lenco GL75 and have an OL Silver arm and Denon DL103R cart on it now. I then sold a Thorens TD160 and a Garrard 401 on a nice plinth. One caveat here is that, while my Lenco beat my Garrard in every way, Johnnantais has managed to get a Garrard 301 to sound to him very close to a Lenco.

Well, I am very interested on building one of this Lenco. The problem is that I don't really know where to start. I started reading the thread but it's just way too long. Is there a shorter version of instructions on how to do project??? Does Jean Matias have some sort of a website where he would do a step by step intruction for guys like me who is no where near a DIY guy?? Can this Lenco handle a Pheripery ring and a centre weight??

Futheremore; can this be done on a different TT??? Seems like all the Lencos out there are gone.

Do you have a listening room that is open to some of us who is dying to hear a good modified Lenco. I am in Toronto Canada and I'm willing to fly, drive or even walk to your place just to hear the super Lenco. My curiosity is just killing me.

Best Wishes
