Not to sound trite, but is it sonically "OK" to your ears? You are the final arbiter of what is to your musical taste, so audition thoroughly before purchase. As to my impressions, I listened to the Aries with JMW10/Sumiko SHO via an AR PH3, Jeff Rowland electronics and Proac 2.5 and Oscar Peterson was in the room for a time! A very good table at the price point, and some claim it's the least colored VPI. Enjoy, -John
