The TNT-3 and -4 have the same 1.25" Delrin/aluminum/lead platter as the Aries 1, the TNT-5 a 1.5" Delrin/stainless steel platter (no lead). HW switched to frosted acrylic for the Aries 2 & 3 and the TNT-6, a move he later admitted was a mistake.
The Rosewood Prime Signature is mighty purty. An alternative to the TNT is the Aries 1, which with it's TNT-3/4 Delrin/aluminum/lead platter, is imo superior to the TNT-1/2. Cheaper and smaller, too.
Having a VPI table does not mean you must have a VPI arm. You can take the VPI arm off the TNT (still a fine table imo) and mount any you want. The TNT makes a great platform for linear trackers, the ET being a favorite on the table.
