Lenco L-75
Little is independently documented about the Lenco L-75, but the period magazine record gives the basics. High Fidelity (October 1971, p.47) described it as a multispeed manual turntable/tone-arm combination, headlined "Fully Variable Speed, Modern Arm." It measured 17½ by 13⅞ by 6 inches including the supplied wood base. For custom mounting, the top plate was 15⅛ by 13 inches, and you needed 2¼ inches of clearance above it.
What else survives is mostly promotional. Lenco's advertising pushed an "infinite choice of speeds" - a continuously variable speed control. That claim appeared in High Fidelity (April 1971, p.8) alongside the "Swiss precision" line. Audio (March 1972, p.10) repeated the infinite-speed description in its "What's New" column. A year later it listed the "Lenco Professional L75 Turntable" there again, noting that the base was included (Audio, March 1973, p.12).
That is nearly the whole record. No original price, production years, service manual, or full independent lab report has turned up in the Archive's sources. The L-75 is known mainly from these magazine sightings between 1971 and 1973.
