Any real sonic improvement using 2 or 3 belts on VPI tables?


Simple question. I have a Classic table running with a single drive belt and see the Avenger using as many as 3. Anyone care to comment?

To use more than one belt on your VPI you must upgrade your motor pully to the HRX motor pully, $80.00, once done you can use multiple belts, I use two belts and have tried three belts but could not hear an improvement with the third belt where two belts was quite an improvement over one belt.
tooblue,
I saw that pulley and was not sure if it would work on my classic. I'll call Music Direct today and get one. I already have several belts so I don't need them. What table are you using the multiple belts on?
My table is a VPI  Prime and just added a Single Motor Flywheel Assembly that comes with the HRX  pully already installed. Might also mention that I have the SDS speed controller which you will need to switch speeds otherwise you are limited to 33.3 rpm.
I have the Eagle/Roadrunner to correct the speed. Once I get the new pulley, I will use the Fieckert software to compare the difference between one,two, and three belts.
I have a VPI Prime, use an Eagle/Roadrunner, currently use 3 belts with an HRX pulley, which as already explained is a necessity.  I found an incremental improvement with 2 belts, but adding the 3rd belt did not make any noticeable change.
