Hi all, I'm a new member here and thought I'd post some pics.
I'm really happy with the analogue side of my system at the mo.
The Pioneer tuner is superb and my Well Tempered is singing sweetly with the SAE cartridge and Dynavector Phono stage.
The Rega CDP is actually a fantastic machine but unfortunately is overshadowed by the other sources. Still like it though.
The Rotel amps continually surprise me still as do the B&W704's.
All in all I'm perdy chuffed with it all.:D
I'll add more pics a little later of the CDP, Phono Stage and some of the gear I either once did have or am not using at the moment. These pics are of the SAE, Benz Ace and Goldring Epic 2 all mounted on the Well Tempered.
Now I'll have to get dusting!
Craig.

Nice to see a Well Tempered deck working so well, a highly unusual design.

Nice set up Craig, I love the Pioneer tuner and retro look. The title of your thread speaks of a man who's system is hitting the spot - nice one ! :)

Very nice setup Craig! Have always liked the "out of box" engineering on the Well Tempered!

Great system. The only real weak point I see is that old SAE cartridge you have there. You should try a Benz Ace or something instead. :p

FYI Craig, Neil and me know each other. Craig was so smitten when he got his SAE that we get great pleasure out of teasing him.:lol:

I'm more than happy to rant on about my NOS SAE should anyone wish to listen!:lol:
Thanks for the positive vibes everyone!
The Amadeus has been the first component I've had that has me in that space where I don't seriously lust after turntables any more. I've found it to be really simple to set up and highly tweakable when setting up a cartridge. You just need to take your time and enjoy the ride. The SAE is to my ears a perfect match too. I've not felt this excited about music for quite some time.
Craig.

BTW,I hear someone has a new SUT!
