Hi Ken
When I purchased my brand new SS2K in 1997, the MT2 motors failed within a couple of months and in the end, I ended up replacing them 3 times in 12 months. This became a known problem and it appears that Vixen addressed this through the progression of MT3 and MT4 models. My current MT2 set have been in use for approx 8 years now and (touch wood) have not given me any problems.
In the past, Vixen were always helpful and prompt in replacing the motors and have appeared to fix the motor problems, although once in a blue moon someone on the Vixen Yahoo groups will post a message asking “does anyone have a spare motor as mine isn’t working” or words to that effect.
My ideal mount would be something like a Takahashi or AP with the Vixen SS2K controller.
Cheers
Dennis
