Lenco L85 storebror till den populära L75. Nyrenoverad av Åseda Hifi för typ 2-3 år sen. Finns i Gävle Locket är lagat men syns knappt Sommarpris 2000kr
At kr 2,000, this sits a bit above the most common used asking levels I found for the model, which cluster closer to kr 1,200–kr 1,700, so it reads as fair-to-ambitious rather than a bargain. Newer Lenco L-85 variants have sold around the equivalent of roughly kr 1,300–kr 1,800, so the used ask only makes sense if this one is exceptionally clean, complete, and ready to play.
That said, the L85 is a nice-looking, easygoing deck with belt drive, built-in phono stage, and USB encoding, so it’s appealing for a buyer who wants a simple plug-and-play setup. If it comes with the dust cover, cartridge intact, and the speed change works cleanly, it has genuine upside as a tidy everyday spinner; just don’t pay premium money unless it’s been serviced or is genuinely near-mint.

Lenco traces its origins to 1946 in Burgdorf, Switzerland, where husband-and-wife team Fritz and Marie Laeng founded the company amid post-war demand for audio innovation. Deriving its name from the Laeng surname, the venture began as an electronics shop that evolved into a factory specializing in record players, earning acclaim for reliable engineering and customer service. By the 1960s, Lenco pioneered hi-fi turntables like the iconic L-75 model, with its robust tonearm becoming a favored component among stereo manufacturers worldwide.
The brand's product focus centers on turntables, which remain its hallmark, alongside a broad array of consumer audio gear including speakers, DAB+ and internet radios, DVD players, and Bluetooth-enabled systems. Under Dutch ownership since the late 1990s—first by the Lenco STL Group and later Commaxx International—its lineup blends nostalgic vinyl revival with modern connectivity, all produced affordably in Southeast Asian facilities.
Today, Lenco occupies a solid mid-tier position in the consumer hi-fi market, prized by vinyl enthusiasts for value-driven Swiss heritage designs that deliver accessible quality without high-end premiums. While vintage Swiss models from the 1950s-1980s command collector interest among audiophiles, current offerings appeal to savvy buyers seeking stylish, user-friendly electronics that nod to tradition.
