Re: Thanks To Mike and VPI!!!
So good to hear that Mark and glad all worked out well. Yes. Mike did same thing for me as well. I had some problem with one of capacitor and Mike solved the problem as quick as possible. It's so nice to have a dealer who not only sell but he cares.

Re: Thanks To Mike and VPI!!!
Unsolicited endorsement here, if you are new here, or have never purchased anything from Mike, I unconditionally recommend him 100%. Boy oh boy, the world can never have enough Mike's!
And lest you are wondering, I don't throw around recommendations casually. I would refer family and friends to him.Roon Rock | Ortofon Cadenza Black | Miyajima Zero | VPI Avenger | Devialet 440 Pro | Vivid Audio G3

Re: Thanks To Mike and VPI!!!
Oh and while I am passing out accolades, thank you Mark for helping me out with my Avenger questions.

Re: Thanks To Mike and VPI!!!
Reputations are built one customer at a time. Mike has never disappointed anyone that I know of, not to mention his first rate concern and attention when I purchased my Aurender N10 from him. Mike is trustworthy, considerate, and a genuinely caring person. Purchasing from Suncoast Audio is like buying from a best friend, and can be done with full faith and confidence.

Re: Thanks To Mike and VPI!!!
those Hurst motors are very durable, any idea what happened and did you get a drop in replacement or and all-new SAMA? it was good outcome nonetheless. Originally Posted by MDP

Re: Thanks To Mike and VPI!!!
Rob, I got a brand new one. The motor was running but kept getting slower. I suspect a bad bearing, but don't know for sure.

Hello Mark, yes thanks to assistance from yourself, Mike, and the folks at VPI I am. One outstanding issue that Mike and the folks at VPI are handling. Originally Posted by MDP

I upgraded the power supply on my Gigafoil v4 to a Weiss PSU 102. It’s very nice step up. But with the new model, you’re looking at $2000 before even investing in a SOTA linear power supply.
