In Reply to: COMPRESSOR+TANK FOR AIR BEARING TT+ARM ? posted by hifitommy on April 24, 2000 at 06:32:09:
I've thought about the same thing for my ET tonearm. Our local Farm & Fleet store sold a compressor tank only with a pressure gauge that you can fill at your local gas station air pump, or with a portable compressor. There would then be no pump in the room, only a tank full of pressurized air that would give hours of listening time before refilling. ET's literature says that their arm requires 3 to 5 psi, but higher pressures are no problem. They even mention that you can use an air compressor/tank and shut it off after its charged, and run the arm for hours. I looked at this portable, fillable tank last year before I had any thought about buying an air bearing tonearm and new table, and wouldn't you know now that I want one, they aren't in store anymore. I am looking around to locate this tank,(about the size of a propane barbecue grill tank, and cost about $40.00), and will let you know how it works when I find it.
