Offered is „VPI ARIES 2 + JMW+ADS“ by VPI industries as second-hand device from the category „Record Player, Tone Arm, System...“ on audio-markt.de - the online market place for high-end. The advert with the number 8782862851 ends on 11.12.2026 at 15:02 o'clock.
At €4,700, this sits just under the €4,718 25th percentile and below the €4,743 median of your recent EUR comps, so it reads as a solid buyer’s price rather than an ambitious one. Against that small sample, it’s effectively in the lower end of the market and close enough to the floor to be attractive without looking implausibly cheap.
That makes it worth a close look if the table, bearing, arm, and speed control are all healthy, because this is a well-regarded deck with real long-term appeal: strong build, easy upgrade path, and enough performance headroom to justify serious analog setups. At this level, a clean example is the kind of buy that can save you money versus chasing a higher-priced listing, especially if it includes the dust cover, platter, clamp, and original packing.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
VPI Industries, founded in 1978 by Harry and Sheila Weisfeld in Cliffwood, New Jersey, emerged from a lifelong audiophile's basement workshop as a quintessential American family enterprise. What began with simple record weights and turntable isolation bases quickly evolved into a benchmark for analog precision, driven by Harry's relentless experimentation and Sheila's steadfast support. By 1981, the HW-16 record cleaning machine marked their first enduring hit, cementing VPI's heritage in the vinyl revival long before it became mainstream.
The brand specializes in high-end turntables, tonearms, phonograph accessories, and record cleaning systems, with iconic models like the TNT, Aries, Scout series, and the Classic 30th Anniversary edition showcasing uncompromising engineering. VPI prioritizes mechanical innovation—unibody designs, advanced platters, and air-bearing arms—over diversification into amplifiers, speakers, DACs, or headphones, maintaining a laser focus on the analog front-end.
Positioned firmly in the high-end market, VPI commands respect among discerning audiophiles for delivering reference-grade performance at accessible price points relative to rivals. Now led by Harry's son Mat Weisfeld, the company thrives on its reputation for bulletproof reliability, world-class soundstaging, and U.S.-made craftsmanship, making it a cornerstone choice for serious vinyl enthusiasts seeking timeless excellence.
