VPI Scoutmaster II Turntable with JMW-9 Signature Tonearm/Nordost Wiring and Anti-Skate
For improved stability and damping, the Scoutmaster chassis is made from two 1 1/8" thick MDF sandwiched between a 12 gauge steel plate giving a more rigid, non-resonant plinth. The HRX platter is 1 7/8" thick of finely machined Acrylic. This improves speed stability and allows for the use of the New HRX Stainless Steel Outer Periphery Ring Record Clamp.
The Black Knight solid aluminum motor assembly with a new 300-rpm motor(lower resonant frequency, only 5Hz!) is contained in a separate steel housing and drives the platter via an Aries belt, speeds are 33 and 45 standard, 78 is optional. Very quiet, stable and accurate speed.
The JMW-9 Signature unipivot tonearm is the perfect match to the ScoutMaster. Low friction bearing mounted to a solid stainless steel rod with VTA markings (vertical tracking angle). An RCA junction box allows for RCA-terminated interconnects of your choice.
