Walker or VPI motor controller with scoutmaster?


I currently own a scoutmaster with super platter. I am considering purchasing either the Walker or VPI motor controller. I tested the speed on my turntable using a strobe and the turntable operates at the correct speed. In addition, my turntable is plugged into an isolated wall socket that is on a separate circuit from the rest of my audio equipment. In addition, I only have 33 rpm records.

I am not sure the Walker or VPI motor controller would benefit my system.

Is there anyone with a similar setup that has tried either the Walker or VPI motor controller? I would like to know, if anyone with a similar setup has experienced any benefit from either a Walker or VPI motor controller.

The Raven uses a DC motor. Motor controllers like the Walker and the VPI work on AC motors. So, no reason for Elinor to keep his motor controller for the Raven.

George: The Walker motor controller will work on any turntable with an AC motor, and I assume the same is true of the VPI SDS. I see on the web site that the Mk V uses an AC motor. If your Mk II also uses an AC motor, then the SDS should work with it. Best way to know for sure would be to call VPI and ask them.

Thanks for the responses. I decided to go ahead and get the Walker PMC. I was skeptical, but it really does make a difference in my system especially noticeable with percussion instruments and bass. It also seems to provide a smoother, fuller and more liquid presentation, which I like.

Anyway, thanks for the responses.

Since a lot of this may depend on the system in which it is used (important for people like myself who are new to this), below is a list of some of my system components:

Scoutmaster with JMW 9 signature tonearm, ring clamp, Shelter 501 and super-platter.
Blue Circle FtTH integrated amp using a Stealth M-5000 power cord.
AqVox phono stage connected to the FtTH using Nordost SPM interconnects, connected to the Scoutmaster using Cardas Golden Reference XLR interconnects and a Stealth M-5000 power cord for power.
Merlin TSM bookshelf speakers connected to the FtTH using Stealth MLT speaker cables and Analysis Plus jumpers.
MJ Acoustics 200 sub connected to the FtTH using Analysis Plus Subwoofer interconnects.
