Tonearm options for VPI tables?

Dear @joeyfed55 :  In the next post I see that you recommended the Fatboy:

If you have some trouble about my advice is to put in direct contact with VPI ( by phone. ) and explain all the problems you are experienced, maybe they can help you to fix it due that as you said was a high $$$ investment.

In the other side yes that Kuzma is very good design.

Regards and enjoy the MUSIC NOT DISTORTIONS,

Questions for @cleed and @frogman.

Cleed, have you ever heard of Harry selling a blank (armless) Classic or are you referring more to the other tables in the line?

Frogman, what table did you have the ET on?  I had one on a Sota for years.  Not that best matchup I have been told but I enjoyed the hell out of it.  It finally got to the point where repairs were way more than I could justify but I was sure reluctant to go back to the world of pivots.  Looking back I realize that the solid deck Classic would make a near perfect foundation for nice new ET.

Matt sez VPI will set up its 'tables for whatever arm the buyer prefers.

russache,

My ET2 sat on the MK2, 3, and 4 versions of the HW19.  Then, and for the last ten years or so, the TNT 6.  Great combination in each case.  Still love the arm and it has never needed repair of any kind.  I have tweaked the heck out of it.  Awesome arm.  Good luck.

Thanks cleeds, great to know.  I truly love listening to a well setup uni-pivot.  But the technical side of me really hates working on them. I often thought a TNT type setup would be grand (many 'grand') but I was more curious about the Classic since I had not seen one as a blank as yet.
