Thanks for the offer. I will work on the arm for a while and let you know. I still have only 2 or 3 hours on it! Home life has been a bit buzy.

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 ?

Another interesting ET2 ad came in as a saved search while I had my coffee this morning. Don't see these too often? Just sharing - No affiliation - fyi only. http://www.ebay.ca/itm/WISA-AIR-PUMP-FOR-AIR-BEARING-TONEARMS-ET2-TESTED-WORKS-GREAT-CLEAN-/360755491531?ssPageName=ADME:B:SS:CA:1123 One of the things that bug me alot are disposable products. It seems most things we buy just gets tossed out these days due to cost to fix over buying new from "country" fill in the blank. You gotta love how this analog hobby recycles..... Cheers |
