Think of it as an analog kids meal. The first<br />
collaboration between VPI’s founder, Harry<br />
Weisfeld and his son Mat, who is now the<br />
company frontman is an outstanding success.<br />
An astute businessman in his own<br />
right, the junior Weisfeld recognizes the<br />
way to lure more people into the analog<br />
world is by connecting with a newer audience,<br />
in this case the booming personal<br />
audio market.<br />
With a great MM phonostage and<br />
headphone preamplifier built right into the<br />
table, you can enjoy your LPs day or night,<br />
without fear of waking the neighbors.<br />
Even if you don’t have a full blown system,<br />
(yet) all that’s required for a most excellent<br />
analog journey is your favorite pair<br />
of headphones and the Nomad. Those<br />
wanting to integrate it into a standard system<br />
can use the RCA jacks on the back to<br />
interface.<br />
And for those of you new to the vinyl<br />
game, the Nomad comes with an Ortofon<br />
2M red cartridge already mounted, so<br />
setup is minimal, both in terms of time and<br />
complexity. So what are you waiting for<br />
