VPI Aries 3 Has Arrived

The Aries 3, Super Platter, with the Dynavector 507 MKII has arrived! Delivered in just over 3 weeks...

So far it trumps the Scout in every way! Only reservation (observation) is that it seems a tab bit "slower" in the pace n' rhythm department than my Scout. The Aries 3 sounds more 'refined,' more 'controlled' overall. I am told by my stereo shop guru that this charcter will change over the next 50 to 100 hours as the platter bearing, tonearm, and tonearm wire break-in a bit...

Awesome piece of equipment; a beautiful work of art...

Have anyone else noticed a change (improvement) once a few hours have been logged on their TT?

Stickman,

Instead of the Ke Kaitora Rua, I'd recommend saving a bit more and go for the XV-1S. I have a Dynavector XV-1S on my Aries 2/JMW-10.5/SDS/super platter/periphery ring set-up and I am very pleased! The XV-1S is an incredible cartridge and it has great synergy with the VPI tables. Enjoy your new Aries 3!
