"...the VPI Scoutmaster is an utter success. The sheer amount of unforced detail that I hear off recordings that long lay buried (and much of that with a $200 Benz), is frankly amazing... Yes, the VPI Scoutmaster is definitely greater than the sum of its parts. I look forward to spinning discs on it for some time to come." - 10 Audio
