Well Tempered Signature turntable and arm


Hello,
since yesterday i have a Well Tempered Signature turntable with matching tonearm.
Unfortunatelly there are so little informations about this product.
The only source for me is on vinylengine.com, from the seller and from an ad reputedly of 1989, but i am not shure if some of these informations are correct:

- prduction date: at the latest from 1989 till at least 1995
- 50 pieces made
- more expensive than WT Reference
- it should be exposed in the Museum of Modern Arts in NY (but i have just found the Well Tempered chair by Ron Arad, sic!)

Have you any correct informations about this nice turntable?

Maybe any cartridge recommendations? I will try my Decca / London Reference Cartridge and DV XV-1s, i think both of them match it quite good.

No, I think you're probably on your own rocking that table. Thats not to say I'm not slightly envious.

I considered a DV XV-1s for my Well Tempered Ref, but ultimately decided against going with a cart that expensive. FWIW I'm really enjoying a Zu 103 prime on my WTR.

Do you have some pics posted of your sig?
I used a Marigo modded, full loaded WT in the mid 90's, when I remember right, I used Lyra and Benz cartridges. I think, a cartridge which does not reflect a lot of energy into the Arm would be my choice today, Zyx Airy 3 for example.
This turntable was indeed made only in a limited quantity of 50 units worldwide, the included tonearm was made to match this turntable but could be purchased by order with a different base. It was the best turntable and tonearm Well Tempered ever made. The Reference was great too but had a different platter (more interior damping). The Signature tonearm was 10" and stainless steel, suitable also for heavier moving coils, the Reference arm only 9" long and lightweight carbon structure. Stay with your Signature, it was their best.
Thanks for your answer. After some monthes with the London Reference Cartridge mounted in it, that was really very good, i will mount the DV XV-1s this weekend.
Any comparisons with the new Well Tempered tables with the Golf ball? Rave reviews but are they really better than the old tables? I had a Well Tempered Classic that I foolishly sold!
