Nah, I like them too much
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 ?

Hi Richardkrebs 10-03-13: RichardkrebsI imagine it might be a bit challenging producing these parts for a DIY enthusiast. Given you have access to CNC machines and a fully qualified engineer at your workplace who could design something for you, it surprises me given your criticisms of the ET design in this thread. There are companies that can design and fabricate these components for you. Here is a link to a company that could do the engineering design and fabrication... http://www.dovermotion.com Cheers |
10-02-13: Manitunc Manitunc - am I understanding you - 3 ET2's now ? Holy Moly May I suggest this pump for you. http://www.ebay.ca/itm/Timeter-ARIDYNE-2000-Air-Compressor-System-/121186778121?ssPageName=ADME:B:SS:CA:1123 When setup with a three way system it would allow simultaneous playing of three 3 ET2's .... at the same time. Have fun....if I have misunderstood just ignore. |
