Offered is „Classic Laufwerk + WT Tonarm + Original Upgrades + Zubehör“ by Well Tempered Lab from the category „Record Player complete“ on audio-markt.de - the online market place for high-end. The advert with the number 2847583260 ends on 13.10.2026 at 11:59 o'clock.
At €1,675, this sits essentially on top of the recent market median of €1,673, with the 25th and 75th percentiles tightly clustered at €1,655 and €1,685, so this is a fair, market-level asking price rather than a bargain or an ask that’s trying it on. For a well-kept example with the arm and original upgrades included, that’s exactly the sort of number a buyer can work with comfortably.
What makes it appealing is the package: the deck’s low-mass, high-care setup is prized for vivid speed, texture, and a very “alive” presentation, and the included accessories/upgrades reduce the usual hunt-and-pay later problem. If the cosmetics are as described and the platter/arm setup is complete and functioning cleanly, this looks like a sensible buy for someone who wants the full character of the design without overpaying.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Well Tempered Lab traces its roots to the late 1980s, when American engineer Bill Firebaugh—often hailed as the original designer behind the iconic Well Tempered Turntable and Arm—launched his pioneering designs. Emerging from collaborations with brands like Transparent Audio, the company evolved into Well Tempered Lab, with Firebaugh continuing as chief designer. Recent models, including the Amadeus range, have been developed in partnership with China's Opera Audio, reviving and refining the brand's analog legacy for modern audiophiles.
The brand specializes exclusively in high-end analog playback, focusing on precision turntables and tonearms. Standouts include the Simplex, a pared-down homage to the original 1980s designs, and the latest Amadeus series, engineered for maximum vinyl enjoyment. Complementary products like the Well Tempered Labs Phono Stage extend their expertise into amplification, all prioritizing innovative suspension and damping techniques that defined Firebaugh's early breakthroughs.
Positioned firmly in the niche boutique segment of high-end hi-fi, Well Tempered Lab commands a cult following among vinyl enthusiasts and vintage collectors. Its products deliver lush soundstages, rhythmic precision, and uncolored playback that rivals far pricier competitors, appealing to discerning buyers seeking reliable, enjoyable analog revival rather than mass-market flash. Though not a household name, its heritage ensures enduring appeal in the upper echelons of the turntable market.
