Well Tempered and EMT JSD S75 Cartridge


I am in the process of selecting a cartridge for my new Well Tempered GTA MkII turntable with LTD tone arm. 

I have been running the EMT TSD-15 Cartridge with the Auditorium T-2 step-up transformer on my Well Tempered Amadeus.

I've heard positive feedback on the EMT 75th Anniversary Cartridge (JSD S75).

I'd be interested in feedback from anyone using this combination.

Hi Fin04 and Jperry,

Thank you for the feedback. Once I get the new analogue front end in place, I'll post some photos.

Jperry, I saw your system photos......impressive! Perhaps one day I'll get a Garrard 301. 

I'm hoping that this Well Tempered/EMT combination will greatly improve my system.

Thanks again for the advice.


Hi fjn04,

You are correct......I am running the EMT TDS-15, Auditorium T-2 and the Amadeus MkII, as currently pictured on the Well Tempered Labs Web site.

I ended up going for the EMT 75th Anniversary cartridge and the Well Tempered Amadeus GTA mkII.

I'd say there is a 60% improvement over my TSD-15......more expensive as fin04 points out, but honestly worth it.

I also went "all out" and got a Box Furniture Rack.

I'm running out of things to complain about with my system.

Hi 737max,

I have been working with Jim Uban for about 6 years now. He is very fair, honest and knowledgeable.

He has Shindo, EMT, Well Tempered and all the Tone Imports brands. Jim can be reached at (978) 609-1601.

Good luck.
 

I have not had experience with the JSD 75 Platinum, but I did upgrade from the TSD-15 to the JSD-75 Anniversary.......I use the A23 T-2 step-up.

You can expect a 60% "top to bottom" improvement over the TSD-15.
