Reviews
"But if you pay attention and allow yourself to be drawn into this VPI design then it will reward you with an abundance of sonic treasures. The HW-40 Anniversary is an instant classic. In my eyes it has already attained legendary status."
-The Audiophile Man
"At the end of the day, I’m hooked on the presentation of direct drive and while there are a few much more expensive tables that reveal slightly more resolution, the overall effect of the HW-40 is unbeatable for 15k.Hence, we are happy to award the VPI HW-40 direct drive table one of our Exceptional Value Awards for 2019."
-Tone Publications
"To go back to a point I made earlier, however, no real audiophile can resist exploring the limits of a turntable like the Avenger Reference if he has the resources to buy one. It really is a great unit, and if you are going to buy a top cartridge and phono preamp, you are going to need a turntable-tonearm combination of this quality to match them."
-The Absolute Sound
"If listening to vinyl is your primary mode of music enjoyment, and you aren’t currently putting a kid through college, stop messing around and order yourself a VPI Avenger Direct. You won’t regret it."
-Home Theater Hifi
"The Avenger ensures that she’s not just here, she’s here with some serious attitude and the ability to back it up."
-Hifi+
"With the Avenger Reference, most listening sessions evolved in very much the same way. I could never seem to tamp down my enthusiasm enough to put away each preceding album into its sleeve."
-Tone Publications
"There are several models of tank that would feel slightly uneasy standing next to the VPI Prime Signature, such is the sturdy build quality on show here. Despite the multi-part nature of the installation for this turntable, it’s a pretty straight-forward sequence that offers much that is friendly but it’s that sound quality that is the gold star element in the Signature Prime’s armoury."
-The Audiophile Man
"Anyone familiar with VPI's Prime turntable will find the 21+'s sound instantly recognisable but with improved clarity and precision. This is an immensely confident record player. While sounding big and bold, its presentation is pleasingly underpinned with heaps of subtlety when the music demands."
-What Hi-Fi?
"Perhaps the most important thing I’ve learned in the time the VPI Prime Signature has cohabited with me is that, eventually, the constant urge to upgrade must come to an end."
-Soundstage Ultra
"In the Prime 21+, VPI has achieved the turn-key high-end turntable without compromise. Sure, you can build something better, but you probably won’t do so for anything close to the same money."
-Hifi Plus
"The VPI Prime 21 takes all the good points of the original turntable and builds upon them by factoring in customer and reviewer feedback. The result is another confident and competent performance from the New Jersey brand."
