Award-Winning VPI Classic 1 Turntable Combines "Old-School" Looks With 21st-Century Design Principles: JMW-10.5i Unipivot Tonearm and Fixed-Mounted Motor Come Standard
Winner of 2009 & 2010 Golden Ear Awards from The Absolute Sound: VPI Classic 1 Turntable Touts Fast, Wide-Open Sound With Deep Bass, Extraordinary Speed Stability, and Incredible Detail
VPI Classic 1 turntable is an homage to the incredible VPI designs that have made VPI synonymous with state-of-the-art turntable design for the last 25 years. VPI Classic 1 comes standard with the incredible new stainless steel version of the JMW-10.5i unipivot tonearm in rigid mount mode. The JMW-10.5i uses VPI's pure copper wire, a solid plinth with a real wood finish, a solid fixed-mounted AC synchronous motor, silent inverted bearing, and Mini HR-X isolation feet.
"Match the Classic 1 with a great phonostage, and a solid cartridge (I suggest the Lyra Kleos), and relax. Price be damned, the Classic 1 is one of the most engaging turntables I've had the pleasure to use. For [this price], it's a steal. The Classic 1 is highly deserving of our Exceptional Value Award. It exemplifies the concept!"
Jeff Dorgay, ToneAudio
The sound of Classic 1 is fast, clean, wide open, with deep powerful bass, and amazing speed stability. Classic 1 Turntable gives any turntable made regardless of price a serious run for the money. When we first heard this table being played at the 2009 CES Show in Las Vegas we were all bowled over with its incredible bass definition, soundstaging, and incredible pace and timing. The table was not at all out-of-place in a $300,000 system.
Classic Evolutions
There are three versions of the Classic turntable. Classic 1 is the standard model, offering outstanding overall performance and featuring the Classic Aluminum Platter, JMW-10.5i and mini-H-RX feet. Classic 2 adds VPI's VTA Base, allowing fine on-the-fly adjustments of VTA. Classic 3 is the ultimate evolution of the Classic design in both performance and appearance. It is a much heavier design, with a resonance eliminating 1/2"-thick aluminum plinth and a gorgeous piano black base. Classic 3 also includes VPI's Ring Clamp and HR-X Weight for improved record coupling. The JMW-10.5i is upgraded with a new Stainless Steel armtube and Discovery wiring.
Features:
Speed stability on par with a master tape
Noise rejection that lets the Classic Turntable sit near four 15" subwoofers cleanly
Lack of random motion between the motor, platter, and tonearm giving the ultimate in low level resolution
Absolutely solid, non-resonating laminated one-piece chassis holding all components
"The Classic, in my opinion, exceeds the performance of [VPI's] ScoutMaster series and breaks new sonic ground
at a breathtakingly low price. I think this is Weisfeld's best sounding design. If ever there were a best buy in tables, this is it!"
Harry Pearson, The Absolute Sound, Golden Ear Award Issue
"VPI's best work is now a relatively simple and easy-to-set-up player that combines an excellent chassis, built-in motor, and tonearm. Outperforming many units at stratosphere prices, it puts a premium in reliability, rather than pushing the engineering envelope to gimmicks that do not survive engagement with reality."
Anthony Cordesman, The Absolute Sound, Golden Ear Review
Classic 1 is 20.75 wide by 15.75 deep, and weighs 45 pounds.
สัปดาห์หน้าคงได้ฤกษ์ไปวางเงินมัดจำเสียที
VPI Classic 1 ราคาตั้งขายในต่างประเทศ US$ 2995.00
VPI Classic 3 - US$ 6000
อันที่จริงอยากได้ Classic 3 มากกว่า แต่ติดที่ราคาของมันเป็นสองเท่าของรุ่น Classic 1 เมื่อคำนึงถึงความคุ้มค่ากับราคาที่ต้องจ่าย ผมไม่ลังเลที่จะเลือก Classic 1 ครับ
