It’s a Great turntable and I got the 2M Black and think it sounds exceptional.
Jay, glad to hear your enjoying the table. I hear many are happy with the Hana and VPI.

When I bought my TT Kat suggested Hana or Lyra.

 I just ordered the 10" 3D reference gimbaled tonearm before VPI raised all of its prices on July 1rst.
I got the nice machined Prime motor with my S.P.S, now Im looking at the Sota Total Eclipse motor package. It comes with the ultra smooth and quiet motor along with speed controller/external psu (The Condor) and a speed sensing unit (The Road Runner).
From what I've read it's much better than VPI's Hurst motor with the ADS.
Better motor and real time speed sensing and adjusting.

The kicker is that the VPI motor case can be machined to put the Sota motor inside.

All for the cost of the ADS (plus machining)
