Good quality RCA TT switch?

This should be easier than it seems ... I want to connect two turntables to one phonostage (why do so many have only one input?!) without switching cables each time. Can anyone suggest an RCA switch (two in/one out) that will do as little sonic damage as possible? (Or is there another solution I haven't thought of?)

I've used the Manley Skipjack, it has extremely low loss and no distortion.

It's not inexpensive but capable of switching between several inputs and has a wired remote. Maybe find one used?

Thanks Albert, but the Skipjack is priced at $1650 new! That's more than I am willing to pay for an A/B switch.

Have you considered 1 table with 2 arms? Also, many phono pre's have inputs for mm & mc. You could run one of each per table?
Personally, I'd avoid anything that might add hum to a table.
