The scout is the most honest turntable value. I have heard tables costing over 5 grand and no desire to upgrade. The only thing is it is a unipivot with requires solid setup knowledge and execution. When setup well, the airy sound and detail will rival many tables that cost much more.
VPI Scout or GEM Dandy PolyTable
Currently I have a Thorens TD-150 with a Rega RB-202 tonearm and 2M Bronze cart.
It is a great setup, but for 2017 I would like to upgrade my TT. Currently I am looking at either the VPI Scout or the GEM Dandy PolyTable with Jelco SA-750D Tonearm.
The PolyTable clocks in at $1795.
The VPI Scout clocks in at $2199.

Be interested to hear what everyone thinks.
