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

I got to hear a demo about a week ago. Very good table/arm. Dealer carries both VPI and the well tempered so i will hopefully get to hear some side by side comparisons.
The killer table of the night was the Well tempered table made for Dynavector with the Dynavector arm and new XV-1T cartridge. WOW WOW WOW.
Also heard the new cartridge in the Amadeus also and it was great too. Special table at a special price.
I heard the Armadeus with its own arm. The Dynavector arm was on the Dynavector table (Dv500) which is made for Dynavector by Well tempered, and designed for the dynavector 507MKII. Both systems were great.
Chashas1,
Thats what i said. the table is made for Dynavector by Well tempered, to fit the Dynavector arm. it also is alot better looking, it is built to a higher stantard as far as fit and finish. In any case. the table with the Dynavector arm was better than the well tempered arm/table, at a higher price of course.
They had both tables side by side. i have been dealing with Alan for several years. great Guy! great store! That was one of the nicest demos I've gone to. joe harley was there and Audio research. Plus live music. great time.
Not sure how i got straightened out??
Jim, is the GT version of the Armadeus going to have the better looking finish, and use the same plinth as the DV500? Will price be the same?
Jim,
One more question. What are the advantages (if any) to using the acrylic plinth on the DV500 and upcoming GT model over the Birch used on the Armadeus?
