The VPI Prime Turntable - The Affordable Super Table!

The VPI Prime combines the Scout, HRX & Classic Designs all into one! Featuring a similar Scout Plinth but with the shape and evolved feet of the HRX, then add on the Classic Platter AND the original style 3D tonearm and you get the VPI Prime!

The past 3 years VPI has been focusing mainly on new/entry level audiophiles and getting them to embrace vinyl for the first time. Now in 2015, with the Prime VPI has gotten back to their roots and in focusing on the existing audience with a table that offers quality hi-end sound while taking advantage of their improvements in technology. Also, it was important to show the industry that VPI will still be making new turntable and designs whether VPI founder Harry Weisfeld is in the factory or poolside! The Prime is Mat Weisfeld's first solo design on a table with Harry's approval as well as input from the rest of the VPI staff. The shape of the Prime is meant to have a curvier and sexy look compared to the "classic" look of their tables over the past 10 years. At same time having the footprint to accommodate the space needed for a 10 inch 3D arm.
