So Long It's Been Good To Know Ya

I see the SDS listed under "Products" >"Machines".
I see no reference to the ADS.

Here is a bunch of discussion on the ADS:

If you read all the way through the forum post above, Harry says it's way better than the SDS.

Pure analog . Got to hear and see it at Capital audiofest.  They (vpi ) very high on them.

So the new ADS has no AC line regeneration, compared to the SDS?

I guess VPI has no noise on their incoming AC, that they can hear?

This is wait and see, IMO.

No long term speed adjustment.  No phase splitting to get rid of cap on Hurst motor.

That said it would be nice if we got to listen to a Walker,Phoenix, and both VPI's side by side.  I am total non digital and transistor kind of guy.  But we are talking about making a stable motor output with least amount of vibration/noise.  We are moving a motor not a speaker.

So without testing it I guess it is just a WAQ on my part.

Enjoy the ride
