Here is a VPI HW 19 MK III table that has been gone over from top to bottom and is in excellent working condition. The thrust pad and bearing are n excellent condition. The overall cosmetic condition is very good, with only slight swirl marks on the black acrylic from cleaning. The dust cover comes with hinges and it too is in very good condition with very minor visual swirls.The spindle well has been thoroughly cleaned and re-lubed and a brand new belt purchased. The table does not come with a cartridge. The tone arm is a brand new 750 with an SME adapter and nice drop weight. which, both are nice added features. This makes the arm extremely flexible. It also has a Van den Hul-Cardas DIN cable. The speed is rock solid and does not waver or wander. Everything about this table is spot on. It has one minor blemish on the acrylic but in general it is very presentable and look great. If you always wanted one of the big boy HW 19's here is your chance. I have customized the suspension to my desire by adding new foam, as well as added spikes as the footers. I have the original footers in case you would rather use those. This is really a turn key and a top notch player. It comes with a brand new Music Hall Cruise Control 2. It is now not only rock solid steady but also pitch perfect at 33.3. I've also tweaked the platter further by removing the cork and adding a carbon fiber plate. Also, an AudioQuest AC power cable has been added, as well as, a VPI Delrin Clamp, for further improvements.
