In terms of sound quality the Lenco will be the Teres' superior, this is not a matter of taste or presentation, and not by a small margin. Being a woodworker, get those creative juices flowing and design a beautiful plinth showing off your skills for the vintage Lenco. Of course, as always, many simply won't believe the Lenco is as good as reported, but already one fellow who owned and sold the Teres 245 with Moerch tonearm wrote the following: "I bought an LP12 with Valhalla and Ittok initially and was quite pleased for a while. For me (and my ten thumbs), set-up issues plagued that particular table. I heard a basic Teres setup and promptly sold the Linn as the sound quality bested the Linn by an embarassingly large margin. I then had a Teres 245 with Moerch DP-6 and Allaerts MC-1B. Unfortunately, my Teres had problems of it's own (recurrent motor controller faults, cracked base that had to be replaced, etc. etc.). I now use a modified Lenco L-75 with Moerch DP-6 arm and Denon DL-160 cartridge and have achieved what is easily the best sound (and reliability) to date."
