Welcome. On offer is my VPI Classic Signature turntable in Walnut. It comes complete with:
- original SDS speed controller
- original stroboscopic speed calibration disc
- original stock record weight/clamp
- original 3D printed arm
- original leveling rod
- original manual
- original alignment jig
- NO outer ring, that is not standard with this product, or necessary IMHO
In addition it includes:
- Nordost Heimdall 2 1.5m tonearm cable
- 5mm black Funk Firm Achromat
- Soundsmith Counter Intuitive Weight.

"Now, for the first time ever, it's delightfully easy to INDEPENDENTLY adjust your VPI tonearm to the exact tracking force and azimuth for optimal alignment, and to return to that setting easily and quickly. Peak performance done simply. Calibrated scales allow quick tweaking for accurate comparison of different settings. Each "Intuitive" is carefully hand machined for a precision fit out of a thermally stable, highly damped polymer material, with installed brass weights. Designed to last a lifetime...."
These upgrades elevate the already stellar performance of a turntable (that the Absolute Sound called Harry Weisfeld's best work) to super bike levels. This is truly an endgame turntable. There may be newer and more hyped but you will not find better for under six figures, if that.
Includes the original manual and box for plinth and arm. The platter and SDS ship securely in new double wall 275lb rated double boxes. Be aware that INSURED UPS Ground shipping for two very heavy boxes will be expensive, $300 for CA to NY.
Local E Bay Area pickup is fine. (Please do not send me offers with a lower price just because you are local.)
I am the original owner. Unit not quite four years old. It functions perfectly. I always maintained and lightly lubricated the bearings annually as recommended by VPI. It is cosmetically excellent, with the exception of some surface marks near the front where I habitually placed the record weight. Wabi sabi, folks.
No trades considered, at all. Price is firm—I am in no rush or need to sell—all offers will be politely ignored.
I thank you for your time. This is a very special unit. Do not let it get away.

Do you mind if I ask what turntable you’re getting to replace this excellent one? Also, have you ever compared this with a top flight LP12? Thanks! Matt Hi. I’m getting out of vinyl. Never heard an LP12. |
