05.11.2022 10:00
VPI Industries has unveiled its new turntable, part of the VPI Forever series. Model One, as the company says, "is a new era of performance and modularity, paying tribute to over 45 years of VPI heritage".
The VPI Forever Model One is equipped with the VPI S-Tonearm (which we have already written about) and uses 3-Point Floating Suspension (3D Isolation). This advanced isolation system stabilizes the turntable and motor, reduces noise and vibration. Isolated suspension made from high-tech polymer, fully adjustable for leveling, eliminates motor noise interference and improves tonearm balancing.
The turntable upgrade system includes - Periphery Ring Clamp (improves record warp reduction), Analog Drive System (ADS) (improves accuracy), Fatboy Tonearm and Modular Two system.
