VPI Direct Drive Turntable

I received a copy of the new Music Direct catalog today and saw the new VPI Classic Direct Drive turntable listed at $30,000. It looks virtually indistinguishable from the Classic 3 with the new 3-D tonearm save for three speed buttons in place of the pulley and the rubber belt. The description on the MD website is rather scant, and certainly does not give enough information to explain what makes this turntable $25K more expensive than the belt drive Classic line. The VPI website makes no mention of the new flagship product at all.

Does anyone have any information on this new megabuck VPI table?

Tone Audio gave the VPI direct drive table product of 2013 after one afternoon listening to it at the VPI factory.

Biggest piece of advertorial I have read and an embarrassment for Tone audio and VPI for allowing it.

I trust that the Myles Astor for Positive Feedback and the Fremer review's will be real and in depth for such an important product for VPI.

Hiho

that is paid advertisment and a joke of a review. Tone audio AND vpi should be ashamed that it went to print.

How can any product get product of the year from an afternoons listening at the manufacturers factory.

please

VPI deserves a lot better as i am sure it is a good product, but certainly not from so called reviews like this..
