About the Classic 1 with JMW 10.5i Damped Stainless Steel
The VPI Classic 1 Turntable is a special edition 30th Anniversary model that combines a solid laminated 2.5" thick MDF block chassis with 11 gauge steel for rigidity and noise rejection. It features a new investment cast aluminum high inertia platter with a precision inverted bearing and a solid mounted AC synchronous motor. The turntable includes the JMW-10.5i SE unipivot tonearm in rigid mount mode, which has tonearm anti-skate standard. The Classic 1 offers speed stability on par with master tape, noise rejection allowing placement near subwoofers, and a real black oak or walnut wood veneer finish. It weighs 45 pounds and measures 20.75" W x 15.75" D x 10" H including the tonearm wire loop. Optional accessories include a lift-off full dustcover, center weight, periphery ring clamp, and SDS power supply. The Classic 1 is praised for its fast, clean, wide-open sound with deep powerful bass and exceptional low-level resolution, making it competitive with much higher-priced turntables.
