Pc for Vpi motor

I just put a pair of Volex 17604 PCs (ordered from Newark, also Allied Electronics). These are robust, shielded, and seem to make a difference (over the stock cords) feeding the SDS and then the TT (VPI) motor.

A pair of these costs about $25 delivered USPS.

If you don't like them, or they don't seem to make a difference on the TT, use them on your plasma or LCD screens and notice the difference in color and image quality. Just my opinion,

:) listening,

Understood.

Happy New Year!

frogman,

Not the sds, but the power cable for the sds, we're talking about.

"the SDS would benefit slightly"

I beg to differ. The SDS is a major upgrade, if you value pitch stability, pacing (groove factor), and refinement.

SDS would improve slightly, hmmm? I'll consider it. Nothing too fancy.

Upgrading the cord on the drive motor won't yield any noticeable improvement. On the other hand, the SDS would benefit slightly. I wouldn't break the bank on the cord. A step above stock would be sufficient.

I was wondering if a after market PC will improve performance of the Aries 3 further? Anybody have upgraded the motor pc and heard improvements?

What VPI turntable are you referring to? I have an Aries 3 and the power chord is a normal size.
