Hot Rod used to mean the tonearm is attached directly to the plinth without an armboard. I owned one. I don't know if the design has been changed and it means something else now.
What make a TNT "Hot Rod" Different
Does the designation "Hot Rod" mean anything in the VPI TNT models that make them shomehow differant from a regular model.
I read that the Hot Rod Mk V comes with a more desirable all aluminum platter as opposed to the Acrylic sandwich on the HRX (but you can get a HRX super-duper model with the all aluminum plinth).
I have an opportunity to buy a TNT Mk V Hot Rod and was hoping someone could help me on the merits of this table and if in fact it does have the one piece plinth.
VPI is taking a break till 17th Jan 07 I cant wait that long.
