VPI Scoutmaster or Nottingham Space Deck...?
I agree with most of the above with the exception of the comments about the Spacearm. I have owned two Spacedecks and have tried a variety of arms. A modded RB600, an OL Silver, OL Encounter, Bluenote Borghese and Borromeo. I prefer the Spacearm t...

VPI HR-X, Super Scoutmaster and Acrylic Platters
