Acoustic Signature Vs VPI Prime Signature


Hello everyone.

Anyone compare SQ of these TT side by side, and what the differences found?

AS not much popular at least to me, but I found their design very interesting and well built, both turntable and tonearms.

I have been told AS and Clearaudio are best option for serious music listening. (but I really like your opinion about this).

I’m still using Pro-Ject 9.1, the SQ is wide, deep, big, deep black, and neutral.
Worth mention, the wow & flutter in Pro-ject pretty low (much low than VPI and AS), will this make RPM 10 and Xtension 12 top TT? (I also like know your opinion about this)

Now I’m looking for big jump TT.

I have my eye on Double X, Tornado, and Hurricane, but how good these TTs in term of reference SQ, and with verity of cartridges, or compare to VPI Signature?

Anyone knows?  Thanks!

I have been a long term owner of a VPI Aries turntable. I loved the turntable. I really trust VPI to deliver outstanding After 20 years with a VPI turntable I switched to a sprung table... Linn LP 12. It is an outstanding table... but with the livelyness of a sprung table. I added a SRA isolation platform ($3,400) and it added a lot of the solidity and slam of the VPI. 
 

I would unhesitatingly purchase the VPI. Great products, been in business for a long time. I think you will be very impressed.
