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 ?

Yeah, I picked it up. Didn't realize the carbon arm, but I really wanted the jig. This is my third.

Hi, if you are interested in on selling the arm without the jig, I would be interested.

please let me know.

thanks

Richard.
You can get new arms from ET. I just bought one from Bruce a couple weeks ago.

Hi Richardkrebs,
I was anticipating the presentation to the forum of your new arm which you were intending to build. Are you having second thoughts ?
Second thoughts....nope. I only want the mag wand and the sleeve/spindle. All other parts would be discarded.
