| Eminent Technology ET-2 Tonearm Owners Slaw.It will be intersting to read about your TT project. Re the arm pod and pillar, perhaps I have missunderstood? If the arm pod has three adjustable feet it would be possible to replicate the effect of the three feet currently used by Bruce in ... | |
| Eminent Technology ET-2 Tonearm Owners Dover. Please contact me via my website. There, I can answer your questions and any others you may have in detail. Thank you for your interest in the upgrade. | |
| Eminent Technology ET-2 Tonearm Owners Chris.When Bruce machines the wand, I assume that this is what happens...The bore thing is basically drilling a hole to create the ID dimension. Sometimes the drill is rotated, some times the work piece (bar) is rotated. It depends upon the machin... | |
| Eminent Technology ET-2 Tonearm Owners ChrisGood to read about the mag wands performance. Thanks for giving us a clear view on what it does. Also impressive engineering all over again from Bruce. | |
| Eminent Technology ET-2 Tonearm Owners In order to maintain standards and ensure authenticity, I have initiated the use of identification labels on my upgrade. Going forward, only TTs that meet these standards will be shipped with this authentication. Every TT done by Bill meets these ... | |
| Eminent Technology ET-2 Tonearm Owners DoverCorrection, you have not heard the full krebs upgrade.Two people in NZ have.Please confine your comments in posts to those that are actually true. | |
| Eminent Technology ET-2 Tonearm Owners Chris.Quite a few of my customers use after market metal mats. SS and CU.This adds considerably to the moment of inertia of the platter, but none have had any problems that I am aware of.My own custom platter is the same weight but a slightly high... | |
| Eminent Technology ET-2 Tonearm Owners Chris.That is one serious looking wand.Have you tried it yet? How does it perform compared to the AL version?Thanks | |
| Eminent Technology ET-2 Tonearm Owners Chris and Slaw. This whole geomerty thing is interesting.This is how I understand it...if we set up a curved pillar in Slaw's "neutral zone" for a given record thickness, the arm will land the stylus at the same point on the LP for a range of VTA'... | |
| Eminent Technology ET-2 Tonearm Owners SlawYes the arm has considerable vta adjustment but it cannot easily be done while playing. Chris's post clearly shows the importance of correct vta.This adjustment on the standard ET2 with the curved pillar is a brilliant design feature and one t... | |
| Eminent Technology ET-2 Tonearm Owners Chris.Yes lifting off at record end is an interesting exercise after a few glases of fine NZ Pinot Gris.Which end for the trough? The one with the least amount of joins and material changes before we get to the cartridge. In my most humble opinion... | |
| Eminent Technology ET-2 Tonearm Owners Slaw.Wrong thread I know, but are you in a position to tell us about your "up coming tt project" ? | |
| Eminent Technology ET-2 Tonearm Owners Slaw."Variations in the degree of trueness"Totally agree. Since I had the luxury of building the arm and TT, almost concurrently, I could deal with these topics in real time. Getting accurate alignment when two components are brought together from... | |
| Eminent Technology ET-2 Tonearm Owners Hello.There has been some private questions about the design of my modified ET2.I have included here some more photos for those who may be interested. The target design brief was to- eliminate all unneccesary joints. - minimise different material ... | |
| Eminent Technology ET-2 Tonearm Owners Chris.I have added a multi spring test to the long agenda of things to try.Liked you cartoon. How true. Many thanks |
