| Eminent Technology ET-2 Tonearm Owners Ct0517: (While you all are on compressors),I finally took my Jun-Air to be repaired. I am excited about it's return and my thought to add the ability to expand it's capacity by way of an extra air tank. By the way, it's a 6-25 not a 16-25 as I mis... | |
| Eminent Technology ET-2 Tonearm Owners Frogman & Ct0517: I feel the need to admit the fact I was wrong. Early on in this thread, there was a discussion regarding the sonics of "The Nightfly" lp. I've been modifying my wall panels and decided to replay this lp. My verdict is while i... | |
| Eminent Technology ET-2 Tonearm Owners Dlcockrum: Thank you for the posting of the MA article.On a different note... My system is sounding absolutely awesome! I hope this is a sign for things to come in this new year. | |
| VPI bearing oil/grease? Stringreen: Your known affermative action for VPI, is well known. Your lack of "knowledge on this issue" is well noted!!! | |
| VPI bearing oil/grease? I've been listening more, here's my thoughts...These type of issues shouldn't be of much consequence until one has established their own "life-time" system. By this, I mean, taken on a whole, you're system meets all of your requirements, room volu... | |
| VPI bearing oil/grease? Dover: I purchased a quart of Motul 300V 5w40 and installed it as I've done other oils, as stated above. (The dealer had no 5w30 and since I found that (standard 40w) had the basics, regarding sonics that I like, I went with the 5w40). I put on th... | |
| VPI bearing oil/grease? Frogman: Yes, the heavier, thicker lube makes for a less lively, thicker, muddy, uninvolving sound that makes listening a chore.Dover: Thanks for the Motul suggestion, I remember now, hearing guys involved in motorcyle racing mentioning this oil. | |
| VPI bearing oil/grease? Yes, I just changed. ( the amount of any fluid is of great importance also).I just put a little of the Dupont on the ceramic bearing and in the bearing well. I applied some Mobile One 5-50w synthetic to the shaft. This is an obvious difference!May... | |
| VPI bearing oil/grease? .......I may be going back to the grease soon????? | |
| VPI bearing oil/grease? Frogman: Since my last post, I switched to Mobile One 50w synthetic, (and changed my tube compliment). I feel I need to try any make a point... I look at the VPI tt lube as an ongoing area in which, based on any system upgrades, has to be looked a... | |
| Eminent Technology ET-2 Tonearm Owners Frogman: Your point is well taken and one that I failed to address: the possible differences in manufacturing processes of the wide variety of pressure guages. I do listen in a small room/nearfield which is conducive to my hypersensitivity on a wi... | |
| Eminent Technology ET-2 Tonearm Owners Ct0517: Thanks for your going the extra mile on my compressor issue. This avenue would have been my next one. I have of late, been focused solely on very pointed issues and didn't take the time to inquire with the obvious source.On another front. ... | |
| Eminent Technology ET-2 Tonearm Owners Wait!, I missed something. Do you mean to tell us all, they have Home Depots in Canada??? | |
| Eminent Technology ET-2 Tonearm Owners Ct0517That sounds exactly what I'm experiencing with my Timeter!The solution is: a local/or alternative for my Jun-Air.What would these companies do without our issues?!Thanks! | |
| Tonearm/Cartridge Matching Whew! Thanks to those that agree with "try it and listen approach". While there is much merit in the measurements, it all comes down to the instruments on either side of your head. |
