RE: PTP Solid12 turntable

I use L75 components on a PTP top plate mounted in a 65-lb slate slab. I've replaced the Lenco bearing with a much more robust after-market bearing, but I use the OEM idler arm, idler wheel, and (dampened) platter, and of course the OEM motor. Speed stability is a strong suit of any good idler design. That is essentially a non-issue with my turntable. I don't know what you mean by "warm-up". It takes about 5 seconds (my guesstimate) to come up to speed from a dead stop. This is the least expensive of my 5 turntables, but it is in constant use. A great buy, IMO. I think the Solid12 uses a Corian plinth, as compared to my slate one. Whether Corian works as well as slate is the only aspect of the Solid12 of which I have no experience.
