VPI Avenger Direct

Turnable

Based on our known design of the Avenger Tripod Chassis, the Avenger Direct takes our Direct Drive technology and marries it with our Avenger Series.  The Avenger design has always been known as a "sandbox" type of design giving the owner the ability to mount up to 3 arms at any length or manufacturer model.

The heart of the Avenger Direct comes from our proven HW-40 Anniversary Direct Drive model.  Housed in an engineered and machined vented casing, the direct drive is ready to spin at the start of a button with 33 and 45

REVIEW & AWARDS

VPI Avenger Direct Turntable Package - Read More

"The VPI Avenger Direct is a masterpiece of the turntable art – intelligently designed, exquisitely engineered and sonically all but beyond reproach, while work on the direct-drive system has paid off handsomely. Indeed, the innovation displayed in VPI's deck and arm design is ultimately realised in this captivating sound. Frankly, I've heard few turntables that simply get out of the way of the music so effectively." - Adam Smith

VPI INDUSTRIES AVENGER DIRECT TURNTABLE REVIEW - Read More

"Would I give up digital for it? Not on your life. I stopped with the “Which sounds better, analog or digital” argument long ago and I enjoy both formats for different reasons. So, until such time as I pass on to the hereafter and the Almighty invites me over for a listen to his stereo set, the VPI Avenger Direct is by all accounts the finest turntable that I have ever used, and it will be a benchmark that I will judge all other elite turntables against going forward. It is obscenely cool! " - CARLO LO RASO

"The VPI Avenger Direct is a true high-end turntable platform. The combination of deck and tonearm make a product limited only by its medium and audio partners. The HW-40 is a great example of VPI making a direct-drive turntable. The Avenger Direct takes that direct-drive concept to astounding new levels. Also, it makes me wonder; if the Avenger Direct is this good, how much better is the flagship Vanquish?  " - Alan Sircom
