| Eminent Technology ET-2 Tonearm Owners Thanks Henry – its the words turn and bore that are intriguing to me. Richard - I would like to see a video of this whole process. I have seen many videos of how records are made and have been to one record plant many years ago. The old record mak... | |
| Eminent Technology ET-2 Tonearm Owners The Mag Wand after a couple listens. Just thinking about it - we have talked at length here about the vertical and horizontal masses. My personal experience has been any time I can increase the vertical mass of the ET2 arm itself - it is a good th... | |
| Eminent Technology ET-2 Tonearm Owners Slaw - I assume you've seen the 3D printed VPI arms... any thoughts?Slaw I have owned the JMW 12 in the past. Here is a pic of my past JMW 12 with a pic from the web of the new VPI 3d tonearm. http://cgim.audiogon.com/i/vs/i/f/1372035211.jpgOther... | |
| Eminent Technology ET-2 Tonearm Owners Richard It sounds better with the copper platter but I fear I will screw up the servo on it due to the weight.I made that comment in regards to my SP10MKII - any comments / advice with your and others MKII experience ? Thanks Chris | |
| Eminent Technology ET-2 Tonearm Owners The use of differing materials from wood to high tech options. I'll either fall flat on my face or end up with something very special.And you will have fun and learn a lot. This is what a hobby is all about. Imo – whether the learning is happening... | |
| Eminent Technology ET-2 Tonearm Owners Richard, its even more serious when you hold each in your hand. They were definitely designed for two different cartridges. The mag looks like it has been lifting weights and has been on steroids all its life. I will put it on soon and provide an ... | |
| Eminent Technology ET-2 Tonearm Owners I recently received my magnesium armtube from Bruce.Here is a picture that shows some big differences between the magnesium versus aluminum armtubes What is not so obvious in the pictures is how much beefier the head shell is on the mag tube. Cheers | |
| Quad ESL 57 - Which to buy Kwbreezer Another thing to consider. If you are living near the great lakes you know there is tremendous humidity in the summer. Factor in a few hundred for a good dehumidifier for your space if your house is not climate controlled where they will... | |
| Eminent Technology ET-2 Tonearm Owners John47 - We assume, I suppose, on this thread, that BT can solve all problems, but he has fingers in other pies.No not really John - check the original post for this thread. http://forum.audiogon.com/cgi-bin/fr.pl?eanlg&1325551242&&&am... | |
| Eminent Technology ET-2 Tonearm Owners Dover – thanks for the wine recommendations. Dorothy happens to be a whiskey girl. Hardcore all the way just like the ET2. No pussy footing around here. Her personality is also just like Bruce’s for those that have had the pleasure of talking or e... | |
| Eminent Technology ET-2 Tonearm Owners Dover - The issue I had with changing VTA on the fly is that the bearing tube can go out of level very easily when adjusting VTA. This may have been due to the fact that I used a single point ground when tightening the bolts holding the bearing to... | |
| Eminent Technology ET-2 Tonearm Owners Richardkrebs - Here is a conundrum. Stylus drag is significant, being able to slow some TT platters.What about the other side of the coin? What about a TT platter system that doesn’t slow down with stylus drag, but can’t slow down fast enough afte... | |
| Eminent Technology ET-2 Tonearm Owners Slaw- from my experience if another adjustment is needed for overhang, something is off in the setup. To break down the set up we have 3 sections. 1) Sub-base plate – the one with the 3 leveling spikes and the one bolt holding the arm. Holds all t... | |
| Eminent Technology ET-2 Tonearm Owners Slaw – I think we are thinking the same thing in your last post .... RichardKrebs - Yes lifting off at record end is an interesting exerciseRichard moving speakers an inch and listening to the differences is interesting. Changing out footers and l... | |
| Eminent Technology ET-2 Tonearm Owners Slaw - there are enough variations in the degree of trueness that leaves me extremely conscious of the importance of the ability to machine as true as possible. Richardkrebs - Getting accurate alignment when two components are brought together fro... |
