VPI Turntables
Even the Critics Call it a Bargain.
VPI Prime

Temptation Award.

Even given its price, this superb turntable is something of a bargain for a high-end deck. 

OUR VERDICT

The Prime turntable/arm combination is one of the most likable record players we’ve heard in recent years. Don’t buy any rival until you’ve heard this

FOR

  • Confident and authoritative presentation
  • Excellent resolution of detail
  • Expressive dynamics and surefooted rhythmic drive
  • Excellent build and finish

AGAINST

  • Nothing at this level

VPI Industries has a long history of producing great value, high quality turntables and while the New Jersey-based specialist’s products have never been cheap, the Prime represents something of a bargain as far as high-end record players are concerned.

You’d have to look at products that cost close to double,  before any notable sound upgrades are heard.
