Actually Keith, If I remember correctly your VPI HW-19 is a Mk.2 (I sold it to you, and mounted your Moerch arm on it.). The original HW-19 ("Mk.1") had a textured fibreboard top plinth and an aluminum platter, the Mk.2 an acrylic plinth and a black Delrin platter. If the label on the back of the table’s base doesn’t identify it as a Mk.2, a former owner (not I ) may have updated the Mk.1 with the MK.2 plinth and platter, a very common move by VPI owners. Or maybe VPI sent out some Mk.2’s before they had new labels made.

How are the Magnepan LRS working out for you? That is one beautiful house you have, and a great dedicated basement listening room!---Eric.

This year spending on my analog system:


Technics SL1200G - Hana Umami Red - Accuphase E-4000 w/AD-60 Phono Board.
Adding cables and accessories to the turntable I spent about $25K.
Not to mention the cleaning machine (Degritter) which I consider a very important element of the system.

Rega Naia package, Zesto SUT, EAT Eglow petite (casually looking for upgrade) so around 20K. Made my own leveling platform for TT (~$100 for materials, plus tools [bandsaw, router, drill press] and labor).

Vevor Ultrasonic cleaner, Pro-Ject Vacuum [looking for Record Doctor X].

About 1,800 records, all in VinylStorageSolutions inners and outers. Made my own solid red oak shelves, built into closet. Write music reviews (mainly vinyl) on my darkwave-focused insta account (@undaobscura).

I am 100% committed. I do not do digital music.
