New old VPI turntable


As a generally (but not totally) satisfied owner of an original VPI Aries, I noted with interest the launch of the latest VPI model, the Classic. I can't help but feel that VPI makes a new model out of old parts all the time, and this one looks like another such product. It's not so obviously like the Scoutmaster with the added on motor from the more expensive models but there's something familiar looking about all this. Not a complaint, maybe it's intelligent design, and I've always wanted a good definition of that concept...Go Harry!
