Well Tempered Amadeus


I am curious if anyone has heard this turntable/arm combo? The reviews I have read are practically over the top with praise using terms such as nearly perfect, can't be beat for the price etc... If anyone has heard it, how might it compare to say the Scoutmaster.

Cheers

Ghunter said: The WT has so much more life and sounds anything but sterile. - Congrats on the new table. I have heard it twice, and it sounded very good indeed. I am curious about your anything but sterile comment. Was there someone earlier on in the thread who suggested it may sound sterile, or was the comment more in comparison to your VPI SM setup.
Thanks for your comments. It really seems to be a special product. I am thinking about either downgrading or simply getting rid of my digital setup in favor of a second TT. The Amadeus is certainly my main prospect. Hope this all helps the OP.
"what cartridges are you guys using on the amadeus. i am waiting on my amadeus gta to arrive!"

My dealer had an Amamdeus playing when I went to audition amps. He seemed to hold the following carts in high regard. EMT, not sure which one, Ortofon, and of course Dynavector, which has already been mentioned.
Maurager, just curious why you went for the GTA.
I have no doubt it's better than the standard Amadeus, but things have been a bit quiet on the GTA.
Apparently Mr. Firebaugh uses a different material in the
plinth. Can't remember what that material is though.
