the HW 19
VPI Scout vs. HW 19
After reluctantly selling my turntable a few years ago, I'm looking to replace it.
The question I have right now is if I should get a VPI Scout or HW19. The turntable I LAST owned was a VPI Scout, and I LOVED it. There is a cool-factor to that big honkin' platter, but the HW19 seems to be similar, and maybe more user friendly? (And about 1/2 the cost.)
Now as I said...I loved my Scout. I'm wondering if anyone out there has owned both that can offer some guidance.
