5 tables one choice, opinions please

Rene,
You're absolutely correct. My bad. Apologies to everybody whom I misled. I have lost track of VPI pricing and was not aware of current Scout/JMW9 pricing.
5 minutes in the penalty box for stupidity.

Dear Chadnliz: I understand that you don't buy used but this is a great opportunity:

Regards and enjoy the music.

thanks again Raul, but with no arm and it being used it wont fly with my dad, it does look very nice though and again your help is appreciated.

I've had experience with all the tables you listed and would choose the Pro-ject 9.1 hands down. The VPI Scout would be my second choice.

I agree your comparison Bob, but this thread is two-years old. Anyone going with the high end of Pro-ject these days should probably go with the RM10 for just a little more. You gain an even better 10" arm, thicker platter, magnetic repulsion bearing, and the isolation platform (a really important part of the total system) is part of the package. Frankly I wonder how they're selling the 9.1s these days.

I recently bought a Pro-ject RM10/Sumiko Blackbird package for under $2900. If not the top choice in this price range, I think that most would agree that it's in the top three.
