VPI Turntables
Improving on the Legendary.
Prime 21
VPI improves upon its already excellent Prime turntable.
By What Hi-Fi?
OUR VERDICT - 5 Stars
The Prime 21+ builds on its impressive predecessor to become one of the class leaders at this level.
VPI’s Prime record player has been something of a favourite of ours since we reviewed it back in 2015. Since then, the deck has become one of our go-to recommendations for anyone wanting a true taste of high-end vinyl replay without a five-figure expenditure.
The original Prime turntable redefined and polished with a new fit and finish and improved performance. Upgraded with HW-40 feet, 3D Gimbal tonearm, and new machined top plate with additional bracing and isolation. The Prime 21 is bringing 2021 in on a high note.
