| Eminent Technology ET-2 Tonearm Owners Ct0517: Whoa! My testosterone runneth over. That armwand... did I miss something?Is this a true one-piece design? I assume you've seen the 3D printed VPI arms... any thoughts? | |
| Eminent Technology ET-2 Tonearm Owners Dover: I agree about the 3 point leveling of the ET. Your acknowledgement of engineering differing materials to the same level of trueness... This is what I'm getting into now, I'm aquiring a granite surface plate with a remarkably true surface th... | |
| Eminent Technology ET-2 Tonearm Owners I can only add: when I set up a cartridge, I try hard to set the appropriate VTA for said cartridge in the "neutral zone", (my term), of the arc block. The "neutral zone".... This to me is the (center range) of the arc block, where as if I adjust ... | |
| Your Favorite Cover Songs? Larryi: Nazareth's "Love Hurts", nice to see this. | |
| Beth Hart & Joe Bonamassa-"Don't Explain" "Don't Explain" was my first listen into these artists, since I've tried a couple of Beth's lps. "37 Days" is a great lp that showcases her extraordinary vocals. Get it!"Bang Bang Boom Boom" is good but sadly COMPRESSED! | |
| Your Favorite Cover Songs? M Ward "Let's Dance" Rodrigo y Gabriela "Stairway To Heaven"Cat Power "New York"Agree that (any) Cowboy Junkies cover is great! | |
| Eminent Technology ET-2 Tonearm Owners Does your design allow enough adjustment for the differing heights of the various cartridges out there? How about overhang? Any adjustment for this? Of course, these two go hand in hand most of the time. | |
| Eminent Technology ET-2 Tonearm Owners Richardkrebs: That is quite an unique design, so unique that it becomes very different from the standard ET design we are all using. In this respect there may be little use for any comparison. Therefore, I understand Ct0517's remark above. One thi... | |
| Eminent Technology ET-2 Tonearm Owners Ct0517: an excellent description of the goings on with the leaf spring and how it works. I only wish Bruce would have mentioned the effects and the availability of the differing leaf springs years ago. A neccessity at this moment in time and shoul... | |
| Eminent Technology ET-2 Tonearm Owners Apologies for making this statement without reading all I've missed. (My father passed away and I had been his primary caregiver for several years, this has severely dampened my ability to give my (all) here for quite some time). Just wanted to ad... | |
| Best Rock Album in 2013 Mount Moriah "Miracle Temple", while you're at it, get their S/T too. This is the most COMPLETE band I've heard in some time. They can pull off about anything. | |
| Best Rock Album in 2013 I promise, my last post here today. Starflyer59. "IAMACEO" My favorite! Check them out! Buy the vinyl at their record label site, now! | |
| Best Rock Album in 2013 regarding the latest Hendrix... It's a nice addition to a record collection but IMO, it's not in the running for ROTY. | |
| Best Rock Album in 2013 regarding "Atoms For Peace", I hear Flea on every bass note! I enjoy listening, but it's such an out of the mainstream record that it would be hard for me to even consider it for ROTY. | |
| Best Rock Album in 2013 ..... admitting this was R Thompson's latest label, (New West).... this is a perfect example, IMO, of how a great artist with great songs can slip a few notches with those of us who still care about SONICS.Maybe, sonically, his worst sounding lp e... |
