McIntosh MT5 or VPI Prime Scout turntable


Greetings Audiogon forum community.

I currently have the VPI prime scout and I’ve enjoyed it for the past four years. I have a Luxman 509X, Isotek Aquarius V5 power conditioner and Wilson Audio Yvette speakers. I am 90% sure I am upgrading to the McIntosh MA12000 integrated amp which will be replacing my Luxman. I am now considering moving away from the VPI turntable and getting the McIntosh MT5. Look forward to any insight you can provide.

I’ve owned a Mac MT5 for years now and it’s a fantastic machine. The fact that some of it is produced by Clearaudio was a selling point for me. They make some of the best turntables in the world. Accompanied with Mac gear the MT5 is a great addition. I put on an Ortofon Cadenza Black cart and it’s fantastic sounding!
