I heard one of the lower models, the diva, at the Music Direct store in Chicago last september playing through the mobile fidelity om2 floorstanders. I don't remember what cartridge was mounted or what the electronics were, but the sound of that system was very compelling, although a touch laid back for my own tastes. It is hard to say if that (slight) excess warmth and lack of dynamics was the table, speakers, amps or anything else as it was a pretty casual listening session and I was unfamiliar with most of the equipment in that system's sonic signatures. In short I'd say they are definitely worth a listen...but I'm not running out to replace my scout.
