Overview
VPI Prime 21 Plus Package Turntable
The VPI Prime 21 Plus Package takes VPI’s acclaimed Prime 21 turntable and creates a complete, professionally matched analog source that's ready to start playing music. The package combines the VPI Prime 21, factory-mounted VPI Shyla moving-coil cartridge, and 1.2-meter VPI Weisline phono cable, eliminating much of the guesswork involved in selecting and matching the critical components of a high-performance vinyl front end.
For listeners looking to step into serious analog playback, the Prime 21 Plus Package provides an excellent balance of performance, simplicity, and future upgrade potential.
Prime 21 Turntable
The foundation is the VPI Prime 21, featuring VPI's advanced 3D Gimbal tonearm, HW-40-derived isolation technology, substantial platter design, and rigid chassis construction.
The Prime 21 incorporates HW-40 isolation feet and a machined top plate with additional bracing and isolation, creating a stable mechanical foundation for the platter, tonearm, and cartridge.
VPI Shyla Moving-Coil Cartridge
The Plus Package comes with the VPI Shyla moving-coil cartridge already mounted, creating a properly matched cartridge and tonearm combination without requiring the customer to purchase the cartridge separately.
The Shyla provides the resolution, dynamics, tonal detail, and musical presentation expected from a high-performance moving-coil design while making the Prime 21 Plus a much more complete analog source.
VPI Weisline Phono Cable
Also included is a 1.2-meter VPI Weisline phono cable, providing the critical low-level connection between the turntable and phono preamplifier.
Prime 21 Plus Package Includes
- VPI Prime 21 turntable
- VPI 3D Gimbal tonearm
- HW-40 isolation feet
- Machined and reinforced top plate

A Complete High-End Analog Front End
The advantage of the Prime 21 Plus Package is simple: VPI has already selected the cartridge and cable to complement the Prime 21 platform.
Instead of starting with a bare turntable and then selecting a cartridge and phono cable separately, the Plus Package provides the core analog components together while still allowing the system to evolve with future cartridge, phono stage, isolation, and turntable upgrades.
