WHAT IS GOING ON WITH VPI ??


I need some VPI parts and can't get in touch with anyone at VPI, They no longer have a phone number and I don't know any dealers with-in 400 miles of me.....I have e-mailed them several times without answers......Of course I can't call them, so I'm in trouble for these parts....I have six VPI turntables, any help ???

I hoped a VPI expert might have a solution to my issue. I just upgraded my HW19 Mark II with a TNT Mark V platter and bearing. I think I have it pretty well sorted out except that after 20 minutes, the platter slows as evidenced by the pitch change. Any ideas of what might be causing this? I'd like to listen to more than one side per day!

Thanks,

Bob
Figured it out with the help of Larry at Hollywood Sounds. The pulley would heat up and then begin slipping on the spindle. Two drops of Superglue solved the problem. Highly recommend Larry!
