I can make the comparison. I had several record weights, including the VPI stainless that came with my VPI Capital Scoutmaster TT/TA at the time. I purchased the LP1 V1 from Ivan and it made an immediate and easily heard improvement over the VPI stainless model.
When visiting one of my audio-skeptic friends (cables, tweaks, etc.) who is mostly vinyl, I took along the LP1 to see if he could hear the difference. Once he used it on 3 or 4 LPs, he refused to give it back (I did owe him). So, Ivan to the rescue with a new LP1 V2. I rank it as one of my 3 audio-epiphanies (along with cables & MC cartridges). If you are into vinyl you deserve an LP1.
