I can no longer support two tables in my rack so I’m selling what is arguably the most recognizable and highly regarded table in Hi End Audio today.  This excellent, well cared for Turn Table is ready to go right to work!  Avenger’s are outstanding, highly desired and actively sought after. The Avenger is a lot of table for the money! 

Check out this excerpt from reviewer Roy Gregory of The Tracking Angle:

“As I already mentioned, the Avenger sits at the base of a modular product line that ultimately tops out with the stacked-up, limited edition, multi-level, direct-drive Vantage. Owners can upgrade via rim-drive and magnetically de-coupled platter options, additional plinth levels and more sophisticated feet – all with minimal redundancy. At VPI, the notion of a long (and adaptable/upgradable) product life is taken seriously and the Avenger is no exception to that rule. That brings a lot of added value to a VPI purchase.  

An infectiously musical performer straight out of the box, the Avenger lends itself to further upgrades or modifications with the passing of the years”.

Mark Pearson with Positive FeedBack is keen on the Avenger. Here are his expressions:

“There also is a sense of unlimited dynamic range with the Avenger. The Avenger may well bring your LPs to life in a way you possibly have never heard before. LPs that have really good dynamic range cut into them will make you blink involuntarily at certain moments which can be startling and it isn't for the faint of heart who like to listen to their music at whisper quiet levels so it sounds polite. Rather, the Avenger is a table for those who are on the journey of discovering how good LPs really are, how close we can come to the sound of actual live music in our rooms, and possibly how much music is still locked away in those grooves that you previously didn't have the key to open until you have heard them through the Avenger. There is a reason I keep referring to the term "life" when I talk about the sound of the Avenger”.
