Yes, been watching this closely. Harry wrote me that they'll make a retrofit for most of their older tables. It will require a new bearing and the 2 new platters plus a spacer to raise the VPI tonearm mount ~1.5". It will also have a replaceable thrust plate they will recommend replacing once a year. This due to that plate taking the entire weight of both platters, 30 lbs, but replacement basically gives you a new bearing. I continue to be amazed at the performance I get from this table. Can't wait to step that up several notches ... again!
