The Wand turntable


Does anyone have at home or have listened The Wand turntable, by NZL Design Build Listen?

I have seen some reviews about the wand tonearm, but nothing about the turntable+tonearm.

I come from a Thorens 160 + Linn basik plus tonearm + Sumiko Blue point 2 (and I would keep this cartridge).
Many friends of mine suggest me to buy Michell Gyrodec, but I do not like very much the Michell tonearm.
So I am watching this NZL turntable: it looks a very good tonearm but a poor turntable.

I’ve only seen the Wand TT at Munich, and had a good chat to Simon. I heard it on a system I didn’t know, with Gershman Acoustics speakers. The system was lively and you could hear the rhythmic drive I know the Wand arm to have. (I use the Wand Master on my Garrard 401 setup with Dynavector XX2 Mk2 cart, a synergistic combo.) It looks great in real life, pictures don’t quite do it justice. It has electronic motor speed control and the platter is larger than 12” which gives it more inertia than an equivalent weight 12” one. If I didn’t have 2 Garrards already I’d have a Wand TT! I know Simon spent a lot of time refining the design before releasing it and has enjoyed other classic TTs in the past such as Garrard, Lenco, Technics SP10. He has a fine ear and being in design for decades, a fine eye for detail. I’d love one here.
Lewm is absolutely correct. Read the Aqvox instructions I'm sure they will tell you the same. Some current drive phonostages recommend an impedance of less than 10 ohms. The lower the better. Unfortuantely, most of the ultra low impedance cartridges are very expensive. But, the Audio Technicas are excellent cartridges and great values. Because they have much lower moving mass they will track better than the Blue Point and in my system I have no doubt they will sound better. Obviously, I can not speak for yours. My first post was being polite. Lewm is also being polite. Now I'm going to take the gloves off. There are a Host of MM and MI cartridges that are significantly better than the Blue Point which you are crippling further by trying to use it on a current mode input. You want to improve your system and get the most for your money? Get a new cartridge.
thank you ndevamp for  your post and impressions of listening.
 In the meanwhile, I found a Gyrodec with SME 3009, and I think I will go for a “classic” than this new product. I would save money to invest in a new cartridge.
@lewm and mijostyn thank you very much for your advises.
i contacted Aqvox directly: it looks they do not give importance to internal impedance, BUT they sell a cartridge MC low output (0,18 mv) and 12 ohm internal impedance. So i think that this is the right way.
Please read the owners manual for the Aqvox.  There they do advise using a cartridge with an internal impedance less than 20 ohms.  ANY cartridge that fits that description will blow away what you are now using, not necessarily because the BP2 is inferior but because it is a bad match for the Aqvox or any current-driven phono stage.
I trust you lewm 
In the Aqvox manual I have, they wrote:
The sensivity of the XLR Current amplification-Input depends on Voltage and Impedance of the Moving Coil
Cartridge. The CI-Input fits to a wide range of MC´s, High-Output MC´s as well as Ultra-Ultra Low-Output, 
without specifying an internal impedance value.
Maybe this is an older (or different) manual version.
But anyway I am convinced BP2 is not the best matching and I should choose a low output/low internal impedance cartridge to listen Aqvox at its best.
