A bit difficult as the site says "Availability from late Feb – Early March 2020"
Looks interesting though.

I see that they will be showing the arm at the Audiojumble next weekend.
It's unlikely I will be there, but I would be interested in comments from anyone who does attend the Audiojumble.

Too expensive for me! Also would it work with a GL78 i.e. will you be able to fit the long ‘trigger’ arm onto the bottom of the tonearm pillar under the deck.

No shiny chrome version? Would look nicer on a stock L75  . ...yeah, yeah, I know this fancy-schmancy carbonwhatever stuff probably is good too. But chrome just resonates better with me. |

Rather than start a new thread, anyone bought one of these yet? They look like a remarkably smart product and I’m very tempted as a 10g unipivot would be ideal for a M75 with a Jico SAS stylus. Cheers |

Hi,
I personally do not like much to use TA with a conventional Unipivot on Lencos idler wheel.
I prefer different bearing system on Lencos.

Hi Adelmo, to satisfy my curiosity may I ask why? Given that I'm actually using 2 'unipivots' at the moment, a Roksan Nima c/w Heed Zene MC cartridge on my G99, and an Auudio Origami 'UniArm' c/w a RigB bodied AT VM-740ML on my PTP6. Regards Mike K. |

Hi Mike. The idler wheel TT generally speaking have more vibration and rumble compared to a belt drive TT of the same league, therefore the Unipivot TA being very highly sensitive in vertical and horizontal motion and in some TA also in Azimut, would feel such vibration more than other TA. Of course you may have a separated TA pod, but still I think is not the best TA for such TT. Also Mr. Morsiani that patented his anti skating system applied to his Unipivot TA as far as I know did not like to install his TA on Idler wheel TT. In my opinion Belt TT with separated TA pod perform better using Unipivot TA. However it is just a personal opinion and in the analogue sound reproduction there are not absolute statement due to many variable issue. Rgds Adelmo |

Hi, I just finished refurbishing a Lenco L75 and fitted a Retrotone tonearm. The arm was shipped with a counterweight which was too big, but the correct size was shipped to me without delay, so I can say I am happy with the service. The arm is well finished, fits into the cutout perfectly and is fairly easy to install. The version with flying leads, which I have, is obviously more difficult to install, because of the need to solder the very fine leads to the tag board. But it worked, no problem. The only thing which puzzles me is how to setup the bias assembly. I fitted a Hana ML cartridge and after a couple of days of running in I can say, mission accomplished! I am new to Lenco, but the sound is very good, especially the bass which is deep and tuneful and beats my Plantine Verdier. The PV does other things better, so it is nice to have two tables. I can't say if other arms would sound better, since I don't have the ability to compare. San |
