And what do you think of the updated but still a few yrs old SDS3000X the west only sees as LeCroy badged ?
Before we got the Z model, we had the non-Z version here, also with 200Mhz.
It was terribly slow and had two "killer bugs", which were never fixed until the 3024Z was returned to Lecroy.
This version is significantly faster than the first, but I have to say that the SDS2000Xplus was already on a par with the WS3000Z.
The 2000X HD was clearly superior in all respects and I think the 3000X HD will be even more superior.
The main reason is probably the MAUI.
The Lecroy runs Windows CE, which, together with the MAUI, is hard on the hardware.
MAUI is brilliant in itself, for me it's the best UI, but it's excellent when there's enough horsepower, like on our Waverunner 9000 or the HDO6000B.
I wouldn't buy a WS3000 privately, it can't stand up to Siglent.
The Z version is significantly faster, but overall it is very hard on the edge, you notice it in almost every situation.
The quality of workmanship, on the other hand, is excellent.
The features are fewer than on the Siglents.
We bought it at the time to be able to continue using our Pro-Bus current clamps.
I always prefer an SDS2104Xplus to the WS3024Z for everyday use.
The situation is of course different with the Waverunner and HDO.
