Mods for ET2
Removed heatshrink from arm tube
Removed foam from arm tube
Removed teflon filler from headshell and replaced with carbon fibre
Had stiffer bracket that joins armtube to bearing tube manufactured
Replaced wire with van den hul silver - hello radio campus ( rf )
Replaced wire with copper litz from Sumiko tonearm box, hung below pivot and soldered directly into MIT cable approx 2' behind the bearing tube in the centre of the range of movement
Placed small cupboard door magnet under bearing tube - this provides electromagnetic dampening on eccentric records.
All of these were good improvements. I have found any sort of dampening other than the magnetic described slugs the sound.
Oh and using an isolation transformer on the air pumps, running 2 air pumps out of phase to double the airflow and surge tanks.
