Honestly I am not sure you could wrong with either. But for me I also look at the perspective of (if buying new) who I want to give my hard earned money to. Having been in the industry years ago I have really grown fond of the VPI family and respect their culture and how they treat their customers. Not that Sumiko and the Project group don’t but just my personal bias that would lean me towards VPI.
For what it’s worth.
Which turntable? Pro-Ject or VPI?
Which would you choose in equal condition?
Pro-Ject "The Classic" (original version) with carbon fiber arm
OR
VPI HW19 Junior with RB300 arm
Thanks for your advice.
