Please Help T3F problems

Throw the T3F away and mounted an Eminent Technology ET2.5 instead.

The ET will last a lifetime and is very reliable - I've heard both on a Goldmund - the ET is a big improvement over the Goldmund arm.

Alternatively go to a pivoted arm - something like the Kuzma 4point9 would be a big improvement also over the T3F.

Thanks dover

I'll definitely look into that.

I do have a LP12 with an Ittok but the Lp12 has a dead motor right now. Id hate to cannilbalize a good table to fix another. I think I'll fix the Linn and change the arm on the Goldmund.

I certainly agree with Dover that you are better off with the ET tonearm, but that involves a larger cash expenditure. On the other hand, you might justify it by thinking that the T3F will likely be problematic in the long term, even if you fix it right now.

My preference is to fix the T3F. I know it sounds fantastic on my system. I just don't know if I have the technical skills to repair it. I'll keep trying for awhile but I need to make a decision and move ahead. My turntables have both been down for awhile and my system just doesn't sound the same with a cd source.  

Have you been helped by the internet resources I mentioned?
