| VTA and HTA overhang Ketchup, I was not aware of that feature on the ET arms. Very interestingIt is pretty cool. I don't know of any other arm with this feature. After I posted above, I realized that the height of the ET2 arm can also be adjusted to compensate for vin... | |
| VTA and HTA overhang The only way the offset would not move when adjusting VTA up or down is if the tonearm post was curved.The Eminent Technology ET 2 tonearm has a curved post for this exact reason. The part is called the arc block or VTA block. The arc block is sta... | |
| HDtracks died Totally off topic, but most of their hi-res downloads don't tell you the source. Is there some way to find that out? I want to know if it was from the master tape or a dub, what equipment they used, who did the mastering, etc. For all I know, it m... | |
| Flexy rack threaded rod material Theaudiotweak,I bet Geoffkait can help you as I'm sure he probably cryos many of the products that he sells (the Super Intelligent Chip, the Signature Version of the Clever Little Cock, the Brilliant Pebbles, the Tru-Tone Duplex Covers, and the Sp... | |
| Flexy rack threaded rod material Tom, I totally hear you.Opinions based on experience or science are somewhat valid, but opinions not based on either should not even waste space in the forums. That's why I wanted to know if anyone actually tried both. Do I think there's anyone wh... | |

| What does the term rolled off highs mean ? what would the sound of the trebel be if the reviewer said rolled off highsIt's all relative! If a reviewer likes a speaker with a lot of treble and then hears a perfectly flat speaker, he may say that it's rolled off! | |
| Turntable speed accuracy How do TT bearings in motors from the 50s differ from those used now? | |
| Turntable speed accuracy What harm do you think there is if the two threads touch?Increased friction and additional vibration/noise, especially when the knot of one rubs past the other thread. | |
| Eminent Technology ET-2 Tonearm Owners Frogman, I couldn't agree more. I just assumed that his arm was perfectly parallel with his platter's surface!Philcoffino,If it's not, make that adjustment first, then level your suspension with the oracle gauge to make sure that your aluminum pli... | |
| Eminent Technology ET-2 Tonearm Owners Philcoffino,Is it a Delphi? I have an ET-2 on my Delphi, but don't experience that problem. You might want to check to make sure that your platter is perfectly level. If it's not, when the cartridge gets near the end of an LP, the platter will bec... | |
| Turntable speed accuracy Unfortunately bringing the motor closer to the platter also brings it closer to the cartridge as well.It also results in less contact between the belt and the motor pulley. That seems like a bad idea because there's already so little contact there... | |
