VPI Turntable Owners Thread

New VPI owner. I have been wanting one for years and the new Super Prime Scout 26 was just to good to pass up. It should be here in a few days.

Beautiful!

Thanks! I'm currently dealing with tracking number anxiety. I hope to have it here and running by the weekend. I'll post pics when it's here.

Here is a question for VPI owners. I use a TNT 5 in my main system - I wondered how that still stacks up with the newer tables like the ones mentioned earlier in this thread? I've been very happy with mine

Looking at descriptions and details online and on VPI's site I believe that the tnt5 stacks up probably exceptionally well and to be honest, probably outperforms or equals a lot of vpi's current tables. If you were ever looking to upgrade, my guess is you would be looking at other companies. More than likely you would find a sideways move.

Following the "pics or it didn't happen" rule, here are pics of the SPS 26 set up after it arrived. It shows just how large the Yamaha GT line is in comparison.

Just added a SDS to my Classic!

I found it used locally for a very good deal from a hi-fi joint and honestly was not expecting it to make as big a difference in the sound quality as it has. If you've got a VPI table and don't have one it's well worth grabbing used if you can find it.
