I am considering the possibility of this combination. I already own the Linn. Its a mid/late 70's model. A friend has the arm. I have a Denon 103 cartrige to put on the arm.
What are your thoughts on this combo.
I currently use a Thorens td160 with SME 3009 improved and Denon103 cartrige that I like. AN M3 Line pre with tube and SS power. Tannoy MG 12 speakers.
Also. I am going to make a new arm board. Is there a preferred material or should I stick with the MDF.
The reason I am considering the ET-2 is #1. It is available for a fair price. 2# My initial research led me to beleive that is is a wonderful arm and comparable to the best. #3. I like the fact that it is inusual.
My tech and I will be mounting it. I am confident he is very capable of doing the job correctly. Do I absoulutely have to have this arm? No. Set up correctly I am hoping this will be a reference table combo that I can hang out with for a long time.
Thanks to all of you for your wealth of knowledge. It will definite help when the installation process begins. I will be forwarding the info on to my tech.
Wow lots of setup challenges, differece of opinions, maintenance. I have just had a Audionote arm 1 offered to me. Without changing the course of the thread what are your thoughts. I am going to mame a decission on this today. Again thanks for all your time on this.
Well after all the discussion I have decided against the ET2 and went with the Audio Note arm1. Easy install, no maintenance and works great with with the Linn LP12 and my Denon 103 MC cartrige. Thank you to all that took the time to reply. There were many very descriptive posts that I leaned a great deal from.
