About VPI
VPI Industries was founded in 1978 by Sheila and Harry Weisfeld as a family-owned business, starting in Harry's basement when he created a record cleaning machine he couldn't afford to buy. The HW 16 record cleaning machine launched the company, followed by their first turntable, the HW 19, which customers still use after 40 years. Based in Cliffwood, New Jersey, VPI employs ten workers across two warehouse divisions with recent expansion adding 5000 square feet of additional space. Harry Weisfeld has retired but remains involved in design input, while his son Mat Weisfeld, formerly a teacher, became president and now leads the company full-time since 2011. VPI maintains its commitment to American manufacturing, using local employees and materials, and continues to innovate with recent launches like the VPI Forever Series Model One turntable at Capital Audiofest 2024.
