What direction is VPI headed?


First let me state that I own a VPI Prime w/perifial ring, SDS, and a couple extra arm wands so I have invested some $ overall, this being my third VPI table, with that said I am a happy VPI customer but here recently have taken a few notes on their constantly coming up with the next iteration of what ever is moving well and I do believe the Prime is one of those. When they came out with the Prime Signature it was hard not to sell and replace with it but I didn't now the Prime Signature Rosewood is gorgeous but at $6,800.00, now when you get to that cost level I started looking used and have seen the prices dropping ridiculously low on a couple of HRX setups with all the extras for  a lot less than that and they still aren't moving. I know there are those that speak of VPIs marketing from time to time but what is going on.

Aren't the VPIs upgradeable? That would make sense. The notion that they won't accommodate any other arm doesn't make any sense. 
I owned a VPI HW MKII for almost 30 years. 

I thought it time to upgrade, but I was confused by the changes in the design philosophy. I called VPI and asked Harry about the Classic: why the switch from clamps to acrylic to aluminum and no clamps?

He told me that the HW MKIV is as good as any table he makes today, that he can't afford to make them that way anymore, and that I should just upgrade to a MKIV with a SAM. 

It was great advice. I got vastly superior sound, and I saved $5K.
