VPI Classic Setup By Brian Walsh

I'm totally enjoying the "ancient" Classic 1.  Can't satisfy everyone but everything I read on the Classic before I purchased was fantastic.  Could care less what others think.  Its a substantial turntable and looks great IMO.

I've usually had good luck with Kevin and Upscale but I do know we all have our good and bad days.  In the past few months I've bought a Dynavector 20x2L and a Manley Chinook phono preamp.  However,  a couple days ago I was talking to an online sa...
