VPI The Avenger Turntable

Yes, the Avenger Plus is designed with isolation corner posts that accommodate up to three tonearms simultaneously. This allows you to experiment with different cartridges or tonearm types without needing multiple turntables.

The rim drive system provides superior speed stability by applying torque directly to the edge of the platter rather than the sub-platter. This results in more precise speed control and reduced wow and flutter for a cleaner, more accurate sound.

The turntable has a footprint of 23 inches by 20 inches, but you should account for the overall dimensions of 27 inches by 23 inches by 10 inches. Given its 68-pound weight, ensure your equipment rack or shelf is sturdy enough to support the mass.

The Avenger Plus includes the JMW 10-3DR tonearm, but it will require professional setup and calibration. Because this is a high-end, precision instrument, we recommend having a qualified dealer or technician handle the installation to ensure the armboards are properly aligned.

This combination of materials is engineered to maximize rigidity while providing internal damping. By layering acrylic and aluminum, the chassis effectively absorbs and dissipates vibrations that could otherwise color the sound, leading to a quieter, more detailed playback.

The periphery ring clamp sits on the outer edge of your record, flattening it against the platter. This eliminates warps and ensures the stylus tracks the groove consistently across the entire surface, which significantly improves focus and stability in the audio.
