With a Lenco table, serious Birch Ply/MDF CLD plinth, a nice arm you're expending $500 to $800 including the arm and 40 or 50 carpentry/finishing Manhours of comfortable work, a mite messy gluing, but nothing that stresses the intellect in the least,it's already been done countless times very successfully so there's no taxing critical theoretical design decisons, just put it all together, and if the arm/cartridge is set up right, you play around with the mat,siting and feet etc. for a week or two and you will have a very serious table that will rival the big guns by virtue of the amazing speed stability and torque, PRAT and dynamics often perceptually (at least for me ?)crush the intuiging subtle aspects and effects of otherwise incredible table/arms.
Not necessarily everyones cup O tea, and perhaps not yours either ? but compared to the Teres the expenditures of the Lenco project are negligable and quite probably it'll blow you completely away and you'll forget about the Teres entirely ?No gut's no glory and the Lenco is to me an easy and obvious
deal (I'd have to sell a Kidney right now to swing a Teres ;-) if it ends up not being what you really want, the novelty wears off or whatever, I'm thinking you could turn the Lenco fast and easy
and at the very least not lose anything, I bet a Teres as beautiful as they are would seemingly be a lot tighter market as it's a lot of money (I'm assuming)You'd doubtless end up feeling you definately made the right choice, regardless of which you did, the nature of these things ;-)
