Plans for my VPI Prime Scout

Same turntable.

I spoke to someone that upgraded to the fatboy. He thought it was good but not worth the money.

I installed the HW-40 feet, I'll say the same about those.

I have the Blue. Worth it if you like the slightly warmer sound with great detail.

However, I'm not putting more money into my Scout. Chrome wheels on a family car. Instead I'm looking at the Forever table.

Thanks for your comments.  I apologize for being away from here and not replying sooner.  The warmer sound will help balance what was lost when I decided to drop the Umami Red for the Lyra Kleos.

----------
Update: We're off and running!

- Changed my leaning towards the Lyra Kleos.

- Changing the phono cable:  the original plan was for a WEL Signature only to learn they're not available.  My local dealer suggested trying a Pegasus, but I decided to go with Cardas Clear Beyond rather than stay with AQ and either try an IC with gorund or buy the Angel.

-  I ordered the SOTA Total Eclipse with the linear power supply and sent my motor off to get housing machined by them.

- The speaker cables are going to get upgraded to William Tell Zero Combo.  I just bought some on Agon for a good price.

- Adding a Terry Audio EI-30 Balanced Power & Iso Transformer

Lyra Kleos is warmer than Hana Umami Red? That’s interesting. 
I don’t have experience with either but from what I read when I was shopping for a cartridge is that the Hanas are less analytical sounding than Lyra. I ended up with Umami Blue. I would not call it warm sounding. It walks that fine line between high resolution and analytical and never crosses it.

I think there is some confusion - maybe my post wasn't clear.
I was reading Jaybe’s post to say that the HW-40 feet made the VPI sound a bit warmer. 
My comment meant to convey the thought that the added warmth of the HW-40’s would be a good addition to help balance the warmth I lose when switching my cartridge selection from the Umami Red to the Kleos.
My goal is to have a sound that is fast and detailed without crossing that line you are talking about.

Would you mind sharing a bit more detail on how you used the Nimbus system and dampers, e.g. which size, placement, etc.?  I would appreciate it.

I think the comment about the Herron phono being a flavor of month bit of gear  was really aimed more at the posting / promotion made by a now long banned member. Keith great contribution to audio imo stand on own merit.

in answer to question about HRS Nimbus under the Herron, first start w shelf  - in the Herron  / Ayre system I use Core Audio 40# constrained layer shelf . Each shelf floats on cork over hardwood rails lagged to studs. 
Great as the Herron is - built to a moderate price point w mostly sheet metal chassis  - the feet should be bypsssed via Nimbus or equal coupler replacement. The HRS damper plate while expensive does a great job of damping ringing in the sheet metal top - you could save SME $ here w sharp diy
