Eminent Technology ET-2 Tonearm Owners


Where are you? What mods have you done ?

I have been using these ET2's for over 9 years now.
I am still figuring them out and learning from them. They can be modified in so many ways. Bruce Thigpen laid down the GENIUS behind this tonearm over 20 years ago. Some of you have owned them for over 20 years !

Tell us your secrets.

New owners – what questions do you have ?

We may even be able to coax Bruce to post here. :^)

There are so many modifications that can be done.

Dressing of the wire with this arm is critical to get optimum sonics along with proper counterweight setup.

Let me start it off.

Please tell us what you have found to be the best wire for the ET-2 tonearm ? One that is pliable/doesn’t crink or curl. Whats the best way of dressing it so it doesn’t impact the arm. Through the spindle - Over the manifold - Below manifold ? What have you come up with ?

Chris.
Sometimes these posts can be unintentionally blunt.
re the time thing. I meant that you always seem to be prepared to spend your time researching and sharing your extensive knowledge on the ET arms. I personally have learnt much from your input, which is most appreciated.

I look forward to the brothel post!

cheers

I haven't felt this much pressure for a post since I stopped reporting to a boss (wife not included)
you guys prove once again that sex sells well even if in theory only. Now to come up with something that is pertinent, force us to look at ourselves, chuckle a bit, maybe destroy another audiophile inspired myth along the way ......and do it in a way that doesn't give cause for audiogon gods to delete it. Is such a post possible ?

project time management reporting

the previous post took another 40 mins.

First 20 mins to think it up, type it, push submit (all while being distracted by a puppy that seems to want to chew my leg leg off if he doesn't get 100 % attention)

another 20 mins for the system to return a successful post message. maybe some system maintenance ? maybe a little bit of audiophile exaggeration.
