| WHAT TURNTABLE? I own the Prime Signature with the unipivot arm. It is really not as bad as people make it out to be. you will get used to it. I don't even think about it any more.I am running an Ortofon Cadenza Bronze which is a great match.wonderful table an... | |
| Looking for a New Cartridge Browndt thank you. I also think that the soundsmith is a little not to my liking. I will see where I can audition the VDH. The problem with buying a new cart is it is a blind purchase most of the time. I am in the NY tri-state area and find it har... | |
| Looking for a New Cartridge Thank you all for fantastic feedback. Dweller soundsmith is not my cup of tea. Heard the zephyr and paua. Viridian what arm matching issues might I have with the kiseki? Stringreen are you talking about the Anna? | |
| Aries 1 JWM 10 Tonearm replacement or upgrades? @billandsol what did you end up doing? I would highly recommend the 10" 3DR with the new Nordost wire. And whatever VTA base and mod you would need to get the right pivot to spindle distance. I have the arm and it is amazing. | |
| MoFi Ultradeck or Technics 1200GR @lewm the 2 turntables auditioned were in the same system with all the same downstream components.Again this is just my opinion of the way I heard it and wrote my notes. | |
| MoFi Ultradeck or Technics 1200GR @mr_bill Yes I have. The technics is a dynamic table. But what the vpi has over it is rythm and pace as well as a huge Soundstage that I have not heard from a DD turntable. Don't know why but I have owned the sl1100 and 1200 in the day. Heard the ... | |
| MoFi Ultradeck or Technics 1200GR Vpi prime scout with ortofon quintet bronze | |

| Turntable upgraditis I had the same exact table with a dynavector 10x4. was great. but the VPI scout is in another league.go for it you will not regret it. | |
| Best turntable under $2000 The super prime scout is definitely worth the extra money. The vta tower alone is a 1200 dollar upgrade and the platter is a 1000 dollar upgrade. Had one and it sounded superb | |
| VPI Prime - How Often Do You Use the Adjustable VTA Base? Agree with @tooblue | |
| Using Maple Butcher Block Under a Turntable there are footers that came with my butcher block audio shelf that are rubber and cork. they seem to work really well | |
| VPI Prime - How Often Do You Use the Adjustable VTA Base? So line contact stylus. Vta tower would be of great value to you if you have 2k albums. Treat yourself to the prime it's a great table and the 3d printed arm is amazing | |
| VPI Prime - How Often Do You Use the Adjustable VTA Base? I use it for every LP. Its a great feature and is critical for certain stylus types. I have a Shiabata shaped stylus that is very sensitive to small differences in a records thickness. Eliptical shapes are less critical from what I understand.... | |
| Using Maple Butcher Block Under a Turntable Just got my 1 3/4 maple from butcher block acoustics for my VPI Prime Signature. I would say the soundstage benefited as well as the focus. I also noticed a smoothing of the vocals. |
