VPI Scoutmaster to HRX

Hello! And "Thank You!" all in advance for sharing your experience.

I am considering upgrading from my approx 20 year old VPI Scoutmaster with 9" arm. I already have most of the accessories. I am very interested in the HRX. Does anyone have the experience of the same or similar comparisons between these two TT's?

Thanks,

Chuck

@tablejockey 1++  It is only a different look. You need to stay away from unipivot arms. I suggest a Kuzma 4 Point 9 along with the Phoenix speed control. If you want to make a big leap in turntable performance and not looks the Sota Sapphire will do nicely.

I have a Scout with the 9" uni pivot arm never a problem no wabbling at all. It makes me wonder how many folks that criticize them have actually used them. Like you I get upgrade fever from time to time but would stay in the VPI family as I think they make products that sound great.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with a VPI unipivot arm, simplicity at it's best and the 9 inch basic arm is a steal at the price, just sayin. Enjoy the music
