Yes, I have replaced the rubber belt with a string on my Aries 2. Belt tension is of course critical since you'll not have the 'gription' of the stock belt. Easily done with SAMA. I don't have the dual-flywheel motor, but I can certainly see the difficulty in setting up string drive for the two flywheels. (However, the old style, separate flywheel should be relatively easy)
Tried dental floss, but it was too slippery-platter would not turn at a constant speed.
I use a carpet thread, and I believe the SDS (or equivalent) would be necessary to dial in the speed.
Benefits-increased sense of 'pace' and 'immediacy'.
