VPI Classic 3 anyone try a Denon 103R

How rude.

Bobc,
There are aspects of this that are beyond my realm of experience with these specific products. That's why I didn't elaborate. I'm told that the 103 family (w/5 cu @ 100Hz) sounds best on arms of around 20 to 25g eff mass, but the question arises about the unipivot. I would guess that conventional gimbaled bearings are preferred, but that's a guess.

Usually, much higher cu carts are recommended for the Classic arm(s). Maybe the Classic 3 arm is heavier with stainless arm tube?

Your question seems appropriate to me. If someone had experience with this specific combination it could be enlightening. I see no search function on this forum and a quick Google search didn't turn up any relevant answers.
Good luck.
Regards,

Thanks all.

I believe owning a $6500 turntable and considering a $370 cartridge such as the Denon is not really a valid question. As far as being rude, it's an observation, these analog threads seem to thrive on the VPI Classic and Denon 103. It's all been covered before.

Dreadhead,

Idea: If it has been covered before and bothers you... Just hit the back button on your browser... and move on...

I will not be looking at or reponding to this thread again..

Thanks all for the input and assistance- much appreciated.

Why has this thread turned so ugly.... just comment on things stereo and omit the personal junk. This site is supposed to help not hinder
