Where's the trade off?

Forced to Downsize
The VPI Traveler is pretty small and Positive Feedback Online gave it a very good thumbs up on a couple of reviews. One included notable similarities between the new VPI Classic 4 (two arm table) and the Traveler, both using Lyra cartridges but I ...

@Freediver, what happened with your Yaqin? 
$WTB$ Audio Refinement Complete Alpha Integrated

Traveler or Scout?
Just got a Vincent Pho-8 for trial. Hope it will beat our the Pro-ject tube phono box II because I leave my gear on all the time.Surprised to hear that a table 1/2 or 1/3 of the cost will keep up with the VPI gear. If it does, that really helps ou...
