Description

Get the Sound and Convenience You Want: U.S.A.-Made VPI Prime X Turntable Plays with Energy and Realism, Features 3D-Printed JMW 12 Tonearm and 20-Pound Platter

Hassle-free setup, easy operation, rock-solid U.S.A.-made construction, and breathtakingly dimensional sound that makes good on the promise of the supplied 3D tonearm: The VPI Prime X turntable delivers on all the promises of fun, energetic, and addictive and high-end analog playback. Enhanced by a 12-inch 3D-printed JMW 12 unpivot tonearm complete with adjustable VTA and azimuth, the 44-pound Prime X plays LPs with involving detail, rich presence, and incredible solidity that results in focused imaging and superb accuracy.

Every aspect of Prime X screams prime-time performance. Housed inside the vinyl-wrapped steel and MDF chassis, a 300RPM 24-pole motor drives a 20-pound aluminum platter with inverted bearing, producing reference-level speed stability. Wow and flutter, as well as rumble, remain well below audible levels. An advanced cylindrical motor housing and a platter/bearing with high tolerances continue the benefits afforded by a ’table built by a team that cares as much about sonics as you do.

The hit list continues with a steel top plate for superb dampening and a substantial ground plane, both of which help produce dark-black backgrounds. And the same isolation feet found on VPI's elite HW-40 turntable add resolute stability and sleek looks. Speaking of the latter, the black and silver color combo on Prime X underlines that it means serious business. Ditto the elegance of the optional walnut finish. 

Beyond the high-grade parts and technology, Prime X signifies a blend of convenience and immersion that remains rare among audiophile components. Prime X also remains upgradeable now and in the future by way of the VPI Periphery Ring Clamp, Analog Drive System, and Fatboy tonearm.
