Perhaps - did you mean VPI super platter vs. Classic aluminum platter?? If so...the aluminum has a lighter sound than the super platter which reaches deeper into the bass region. Its just a matter of taste.
VPI doesn't make the super platter anymore so you'll have to bide your time until one comes up for sale. If you want it now, the aluminum platter is pretty much your only option.
The Superplatter is considerably better; I liked the acrylic platters better than the aluminum. I am old enough to remember when VPI switched from aluminum to Acrylic because it sounded better; Harry told me they switched back because they could no longer get the quality of acrylic they had been getting.
