The VPI Titan is VPI’s statement to the industry.
Building on the legacy of the Avenger turntable, the Titan is designed to handle up to three tonearms of any make or length.
Utilising a machined acrylic/aluminum/acrylic sandwich-design chassis on top of VPI's pneumatic air-suspension isolation footers, the Titan is set to be the most stable, and isolation-oriented turntable in the VPI quiver of decks.
A further new design feature on the Titan is the implementation of analog-based oscillators to generate low-distortion analog sine waves for its 33/45-rpm motor assembly. According to VPI, using a regenerated AC-sine wave virtually eliminates any power line-associated noise from entering the electronic signal path. This provides pure, smooth AC power to the turntable motor.
VPI set its sights on a new analog benchmark – one that rivals the sound of founder Harry Weisfeld's Ampex ATR-102 tape machine – in the form of the Titan turntable. You hear turntables described as featuring deep-black backgrounds from which the music is laid out before you, but you've never witnessed a noise floor this low. You've read about explosive dynamics, transient attack, and remarkable speed stability, but you have never before experienced the realism this musical instrument produces in your home.
Titan is based around a 44-pound slave platter driving the main bearing, a system that imparts no background noise. Its built-in air-suspension, leveling feet isolate a measured 98% of all loudspeaker feedback and vibration. The Fat Boy tonearm delivers improved sound staging and an indescribably controlled bottom end.
