Yes indeed Chris, that is a time honoured method, and can satisfy oneself.
But not Dover - it lacks 'science and concrete evidence.'

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: further to your comments on changing to the magnesium wand. According to Dover, what you heard was meaningless, unless the system was described at the time of testing - it could have been due to colorations elsewhere in the system. Additionally, without science and concrete evidence, its useless 'just' describing what you heard. |
what you heard was meaningless, unless the system was described at the time of testing John - I list out my gear as well as pictures of the room. I am very interested in seeing what some of the rooms look like downunder. I don’t even need to see the gear. Rooms and speaker (type) placement tell a good story that I find fascinating. re: science and concrete evidence. fact - there is no perfect room. fact - no one has perfect ears. fact - this means if all our gear was the same our speaker placement would all differ - the room rules. its the elephant in the room. cheers |
I hope no ones counterweight cap looks like the one in this link? This is a easy replacement for a new one - $50 or so. http://www.ebay.ca/itm/Air-Bearing-Tonearm-Eminent-Technology-Model-two-/330963316997?ssPageName=ADME:B:SS:CA:1123 Not affiliated with this ad. |
