| Clearaudio TT5 tangential tonearm @haroon - I believe there is a lesson here from the replies you have received. Don’t listen to a 1) well set up linear tracker in a 2) well set up room, at the height of Audiophilia Nervosa. You will not forget the moment. It will haunt you. Now t... | |
| Best Ways to Organize a Classical Record LP Collection ? thanks to the recent posts from oregonpapa, sbank and trytone. @Trytone - nice website and words of experience. From your post and the other suggestions here, I found I do have a number of categories set up and then alphabetical within those categ... | |
| Clearaudio TT5 tangential tonearm Haroon - I have seen and heard the Clearaudio years ago, but not in my own room. IMOI have observed that Tangential tonearms are all very different from one another in the way they were designed, are made, how they are setup, and how they work in ... | |
| Where is the significant point of diminishing returns on hi-end turntable? mmporsche some comments on what you said earlier. I started with a $6 to $10K budget and now I am considering a $25K setup I spent a number of hours listening to the Gavia II from Thom Mackris. Very nice presentation. However, we switched over... | |
| New Mag-Lev Turntable from the websitesafety is taken care ofAccidents happen, and we know that sometimes you may encounter a power outage, so we’ve designed the turntable with a UPS system. This solution stores enough power to safely lift the tonearm, stop the record,... | |

| Eminent Technology ET-2 Tonearm Owners Dover - taken from a quick search "Dover Platine" on Audiogon.Dover - 10-14-2012 8:18pmThe verdier platine comes with an option to use a ball and thrust plate. Essentially this means the platter is grounded, and provides an energy path to ground f... | |
| Eminent Technology ET-2 Tonearm Owners @Dover re: your La Platine comments. From the moment you stuck a ball bearing between the magnets of La Platine, our audiophile experiences became non-comparable. We went down two different paths. I regard JC Verdier (RIP), like Bruce Thigpen, a g... | |
| Why not use an arc'ed lathe? Once its right at any point on the LP surface its right anywhere else too. Sounds just like setting up my linear tracker. :^)Setting up a radial cutter means that you would have to insure that the stylus is set up exactly right at two points on th... | |
| Eminent Technology ET-2 Tonearm Owners Hi Nikola.the other thing I want to mention is that pivot arms produce more resonance at the bearing. Bruce has actually measured this and documented it in the manual.Now I base this on my personal experiences as a music lover / sometimes audiophi... | |
| Eminent Technology ET-2 Tonearm Owners Hi DaveFixing the Level situation with a turntable design like the TNT is doable. If the ET2 air bearing design (very smooth) raises the bar, and forces an owner to take notice and become more anal about leveling their TT (any TT). Then I say so b... | |
| Eminent Technology ET-2 Tonearm Owners Hi Nikola But why is nobody ableto hear the ''perfect sound'' without any distortion at those ''zeropoints'' at which there is no ''tracking error'' and which provide thestrongest argument for this ET- 2 of yours?not sure what you mean by perfect ... | |
| Where is the significant point of diminishing returns on hi-end turntable? rogerabbitIf you want the best sound, irrespective of price, then you should look into the rebuilt idler wheel drive units from Jean Nantais.my two Canadian cents.In this small niche Analog world, I believe Jean Nantais is a Canadian icon and righ... | |
| Where is the significant point of diminishing returns on hi-end turntable? mmporsche - I am seeking out the local experts and will have them setup my table. If I need to adjust something than I will certainly have the knowledge and tools. Local experts – implying someone that will get you to about 8-9 out of 10 on the f... | |
| Eminent Technology ET-2 Tonearm Owners Strangely, I have had no issues with longevity of the common sewing thread I first used nor with the floss. Dave that silk thread I referenced in the previous post is pretty fragile. Easily torn apart by hand. Just thinking out loud here ...If on... |
