Upgrading ET-2 tonearm to something better


I have had my ET-2 arms for 25 plus years.

What is there today that is better?     Does Tri-planar, Graham, SME V, Kuzma, Schroeder etc. eat the ET-2 lunch?  Which one?

Thank you

Well, THAT was an intelligent and useful comment! Curious, have you ever used a properly set up ET2?  Please enlighten me further.

I'll never part with my ET 2.5.  I've thought about it many times.  I've also have owned a Graham 2.5, SME V (while I had the ET 2.5).  The ET is still here, and own a VPI JMW-12 on a second table.  Good arm, but no ET 2.5

Wow. I loved my time w/et2. I sold it as package deal in the 90s. I just stopped doing analog during my child raising years. I would have zero issues returning to one given the years of killer sound it gave me. Some people's narrow definition of what works for everyone says more about them than the equipment being discussed. I trust my ears more than anyone's opinions or religion.
