After two Rega TTs (RP3 followed by an RP25 w/RB900 arm), then a VPI HW-19MkIV w/SME309 arm and, now, a Capital Scout with the JMW 9" Signature arm, I very much a VPI fan. Unlike some, I find the VPI uni-pivot arm to be simple to set up and use and it sounds fantastic. Easily the best sounding, highest quality TT/TA combo I've owned (Denon, Mitsubishi, Sony & Yamaha DDs, Oracle, Rega & VPI). I had planned to go for either a Scoutmaster or Prime, but the Capital Scout came with so many bells & whistles it made the choice easy for me. Next up is the Falcon speed controller, when I'll add the HRX pulley & triple-belts.
