What is there to gain


I have a Vpi HW19jr TT w/AQ PT6 tonearm. I see a ad for a heavyweight counterweight. What would be the sonic benefits to using this counterweight over the stock weight?

Scott, let's put it this way, OH MY GOD!!!!!!!

EVERY aspect of your tonearm will improve. Tonal quality, compliance, everything....... will improve.

I just installed the Expressimo end stub and the Heavyweight counterweight on my VPI MkIV/Rega RB900. The difference was absolutely PROFOUND. I'm not talking about subtle differences, they are immediately apparent from the first 30 seconds of playback.

Scott, don't even hesitate on this one. You will be Soooo satisfied with the results. Worth every penny you will spend and then some.

I am positive you will receive other praise from other users in this thread.

Happy Listening, Ed.
