| Why is used audio equipment so undesirable? Used audio is the best value actually. The original owner has already taken the 50 (60?) % hit. You buy right and you might lose 10% when you sell, maybe less. Buy something at full retail and decide in a month it’s not for you, take a bath. | |

| How does the VPI Aries II stand up to current mid priced tables? I get your point. But I have seen the platter for 1150.00. Still a lot of $$ I know. But an Aries III doesn't come around very often, not that I have seen. | |
| Cornwall IV – tube (amp) choice Keep in mind that you should have around 200-300 hours on the CWs before you can accurately asses their true tonal balance. | |
| Volume matched inputs on a preamp? The Benchmark LA-4 has that feature. | |
| How does the VPI Aries II stand up to current mid priced tables? Yep, definitely doing that next! | |
| How does the VPI Aries II stand up to current mid priced tables? Is there a drop in platter upgrade for the Aries II? | |
| OK, so seriously, what is up with TMR's pricing here?? You heard ebm, MONE on you fools......... | |
| How does the VPI Aries II stand up to current mid priced tables? Just picked up a set of the footers on audio mart. They’ll be here before the table arrives, lol. |
