I purchased the Scout Cover while it was sold here on Audiogon. At that time only one model was available. Now two styles are offered by this same individual, but sold through MusicDirect. The craftmanship of these dust covers are very good! I prefer the newer (and unfortunately more expensive) model that is now offered. This newer model sits ON the turntable versus the first one that sits OVER the turntable. I'm sure its a matter of personal taste though.
Black Diamond Racing/VPI Vibration Control
Anyone have any experience with the Black Diamond Racing/VPI Vibration Control Kit available from the MusicDirect catalog for use with the VPI Aries? (This consists of four mini-pucks for the feet and a round shelf for the motor.) Also, any experience with the one piece dust cover available from the same catalog (as opposed to the standard two-piece VPI dust cover)? Any thoughts, pro or con, would be appreciated. Thanks in advance for your response.
