Ok, IMHO, both VPI and Clearaudio are good brands (sipsip kay ihatejazz :lol: - more discounts :!: :D ). It all boils down to personal taste (yeah, that's what they all say... :lol: ) as the 2 brands differ in sound (sige nga, prove it.... measure it...... :twisted: ), and most importantly (to me 8) ), looks / porma. :lol: :lol: :lol:

I can say both are good TTs, as I have personally owned middle of the range models from both brands already. 8) Naks, ang yabang (siyempre, Master na eh. :lol: ).

As a lot of you guys and gals know, I initially owned a CA Solution / TQI arm, then shifted to a chop-chop VPI TNT / JMW arm. :)

I sold my CA mainly because there was an oppurtunity for me to own a TNT (even though it was a chop chop :lol: ).

Why I like the TNT so much :?: I don't want to discuss about the sound, and all that subjective audiophile ek ek (typical MSM :twisted: ). :lol:

You have to know MSM to understand why he buys this and that. :wink: I like oldish stuff. :wink: When I say "oldish", its not those really vintage stuff during the "Hi-Fi" era / dawn of stereo. :wink: In "Oldish", I mean mid 70s, 80s, 90s stuff. :wink: I think you get the picture...... Yes, its the era when "Hi-Fi" was not enough, and a new elite was forming - the "Hi-End". 8)

I go back to my overused phrase "Gold Standards". I prefer Gold Standard equipment. 8) The stuff that made a big mark / turning point in the audiophile market. 8)

IMHO, one such product was the TNT. :) Upon seing it for the first time on audiofool magazines during the late 80s, I said to myself "Pagtanda ko, bibili ako nyan". 8) During its time, it was weird, used weird materials - definitely ahead of its time. :)

MSM wants products with pedigree, bragging rights, and most of all porma. :lol: :twisted: :lol: :twisted: :lol: Just goes to show how insecure MSM is. :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

I now pose the question to Benny...... :twisted:

Ano nga pa sa palagay mo ang mas mahusay :?:

You have done the VPI / Clearaudio round-about more often than me......

From a TNT "chop-chop", to Champ Level "3", to HRX, to Max Sol........ tapos na ba talaga....... :?: :?: :?:

Benny, what say you :?: :twisted:
