I sold my VPI Avenger after getting an Artisan Fidelity 301 Classic. I have been working on it over the past couple years upgrading it piece by piece. The table is a couple pieces away from the Statement Level. After getting to the Statement level I would like to try the Acoustical Systems Special Decouple Platter (SDP). My goal is to maintain the drive of the idler and get near belt like quietness. At this point the table is more of an ultimate performance quest than a value proposition. Its fun too with a sense pride in ownership.
