VPI new stuff...

I really like the look of the new Prime table. The return of the separate motor and the inclusion of the 3D tonearm make this an attractive product and given its some what reasonable price by today's standards it appears to be a no brainer.
The new VPI integrated amp with phono stage included @ 4 grand might also be considered a bargain. With its super clean design and the fact that it's made in America make this unit something worth taken a serious look at.
All in all it appears Matt is on the right track.

Cayin is based in Germany according to this.

Maybe they have manufacturing facilities in China, (like a lot of others)?

Hi everyone! The integrated is a collaboration between HW and Steve Leung of VAS audio(he has been working on all sorts of projects now that he is retired). The case work is be provided by VAS but the design, engineering, and assembly is still being down here in the VPI factory.

I'm very excited to finally announce the Prime and hope to have it shipping by the end of October. Initial projection was end of November but we are ahead of schedule!

@ Autospec

VPI's factory repaired my old TNT motor a month ago, so they provide service!

Sad to hear they no longer sell factory direct parts.

Elusive disc has a lot of VPI parts for sale, on their website however.
