I pretty much agree with Tiger, however, if you don't have all the money for the big outlay, the Superscout can accomodate future upgrades. ..the big one is the rim drive...really makes a difference.
VPI TT - Scoutmaster, Aries or TNT-Jr?
I am beginning my research into purchasing a TT for my system. I am interested in the VPI TTs, but I'm a little confused about which one would be right for me. The Scoutmaster ($2500), Aries 3 ($2900) and TNT-Jr MK-2 ($2600) are all within my price range, but I'm not sure which would be best suited for my tastes. Can anyone please describe the differences between the three listed tables? My listening will be mostly blues, rock and folk-rock, with a smattering of classical and jazz thrown in as well.
