cartridge plays the radio
Can you select which radio station to listen to by changing records?Have you checked to see if it will work as a second remote for your TV? 
VPI owners.......
The only platter runout problems I've ever had were associated with previous users that changed the leveling screws in the first place. (I've bought several used including my current original Aries.)It doesn't take much to place the platter at the... 
New VPI anti-static mat for Classic Platter
How soon they forget....Harry likes to tweak and address user concerns. When he finds something that works, he makes it available. Is he in the business to make money? Of course. But he also provides very good performing products right out of the ... 
Herron VTPH-1 vs Allnic H1201
IMO, call Keith. He takes good care of his customers and users. 
VPI Ceramic Platter
If it is a pulley with a single deep groove, the belt will not wander but will stay in that position on the pulley. Some of the newer pulleys have multiple smaller grooves and the belt could jump from groove to groove if there is not additional "g...

Brf, doesn't that depend on the style of motor pulley? 
DL-103 compatible with AA Puccini SE MC phono?
Why not just try it and report back the results? 
Audio Technica AT-OC9ML/II Questions
The OC-9ML/II is a very good cartridge. It will work just fine in your arm (it is generally forgiving of arm mass). You can always add more mass to your arm if you think it would improve performance. If you can pop for a Herron phono stage, even a... 
Cartridge and Phono advice for Classic 3
You can get a Herron VTPH-2 and a Lyra Delos. Cost is a few dollars over $5,000 but will provide excellent performance and great customer service. 
Can hear TV or Radio station via Phono stage ???
Are the satellite TV stations scrambled? 
Herron VTPH-2 Phono Preamp
ATOC9MLII should be a spectacular performer on the Herron phono stage. IIRC, it is the cartridge that Keith Herron uses to voice his equipment.And yes, the VTSP-3 r02 and the latest version of the amps are wonderful. I was lucky enough to get that... 
Herron VTPH-2 Phono Preamp
The best sound quality of a Herron VTPH-2 is that it has no sound. It just passes the music to the pre-amp. IMO, there is no better phono stage available at any price. 
VPI Aries owners
Stringreen, a similar arrangement (and IMO a more effective isolation of motor vibrations) can be accomplished using light-duty Vibrapods under the motor. Also works well on TNTs. 
vpi classic works with music hall cruise control
And the speed control will do little since the motor speed on the VPI is pretty much OK without the control. The SDS is all about voltage management. That's what makes the big difference. 
Phono preamp comparison/Pass,Herron,Avid
Sure, but speaker control is in the design. Big transformers, large banks of ps caps and the like don't necessarily make an amp more capable of controlling a speaker.
