@lewm, and then there is the matter of a TNT (or Aries, or any other VPI as far as I know) with the Eclipse package installed in place of the stock Hurst AC motor. Bill Carlin was talking on the VPI Forum a few years back about the need for a better motor in the otherwise nice VPI tables (he's a fan of DC motors), and proposed he and Harry Weisfeld collaborate on a package similar to the Eclipse for the VPI tables. Unfortunately, a clash of personalities developed between the two, and it never came to pass
VPI owners now have a way to improve the sound of their tables at reasonable cost, thanks to SOTA! SOTA is also producing the Roadrunner tachometer, which is identical to the Phoenix Engineering version.
