currently own a vpi scout, looking to upgrade

I have had a scout for about 5 years and I am looking to upgrade. I have heard the vpi classic and although it sounds decent, I am not sure it necessarily sounds better or better enough to my ears. How much do,I have to spend to see a,significant difference? I have not heard many tables because there are not many available locally. Any suggestions would,be appreciated.

Have you considered the Well Tempered Labs Amadeus TT? Talked to other audiophiles and dealers who all concurred that this table is superior to the VPI Classic. I'm going to give this table a try. Maybe worth a audition for you..

FWIW, Stereophile just did a review on this 'table. ( Well Tempered Labs Amadeus Mk. II.) The review seemed positive. I purchased this Mk. II version used in mint condition. I will keep you posted if you are interested. I'm in the process of set up and looking for some interconnects that will work with this TT. I currently own a Rega RP-6 and I am fairly confident the Well Tempered table will be a upgrade.

Snook2. I believe the Rega RP-8 with Apheta cartridge is 4k new. The table by itself is 3k. This is a very good choice also.
Cheers,
