VPI's Outstanding Aries 3 Deserves A Gingko Cloud To Match!

Designed specifically for VPI's Aries 3 turntable, the Gingko Cloud 12A is a huge upgrade for the Aries. Comprised of two separate platforms, the Cloud 12A completely isolates the motor assembly from the turntable and tonearm. The Cloud 12A is sized to handle the large footprint and compact but heavy motor assembly of the Aries 3. 

The Sound
Installing a Cloud 12A under the Aries 3 is thrilling! Bass becomes tighter, deeper and more focused. The Cloud 12A creates spine-tingling realism with voices and instruments. Imaging becomes spookily real, with every record delivering the kind of realism that only a top-flight analog rig can deliver.

Split Platforms
Designing a single platform to properly support the Aries 3 with its large footprint and disproportionate amount of motor weight would be futile. To work around this, Gingko created an ingenious solution, the main platform support the Aries 3 chassis and the motor receives its own platform. The turntable platform is a compact version of Gingko's Cloud 11 platform, with a greater number of balls spread out over a larger area to properly isolate the Aries 3. To ensure speed stability, the motor platform is unsuspended.
