VPI Classic vs. Well Tempered Amadeus



Both of these turntables are priced very simular. Who out there has compared the two turntables? Which one did you like and why?

Thanks.

I think I'm sold. Going to wait until the new Simplex model hits the US as it's possible it's as good as the Amadeus, or nearly so, for quite a bit less money. Though, really, the Amadeus is quite a good value as it is.
I'm also interested in this comparison. Joc3021, one thing about the WTA that worries me is the fixed headshell geometry. Surely there are a number of good cartridges whose overhang must be way off if mounted on the WTA. What has your experience been? More generally, which carts are a good match with the WTA and which would you steer clear of?
Sure thing, I'll have the dealer PayPal 10% to...who?

Do any dealers discount these tables?
Shakeydeal, are you using the Benz L2 with your WTA? I ask because I have an L2 and have been thinking about the WTA but wondered how well the two would pair up.
