Turntables: 2 Tonearms. What do you Have or Know About?

I think it would be interesting/fun to create a list of 2 Tonearm TT’s
(2 arms or potential for 2 arms or more)

How did this happen? Covid Times, I upgraded eveything).
I listen to a lot of Jazz, both Stereo and Mono.
After learning here the advantages of a true mono cartridge, I wanted a second tonearm for a MONO cartridge ‘ready to go’. Got big plinth made for 2 arms, JVC VICTOR PL-2. Stereo cartridge on right, Mono cartridge rear.
Then I resurrected a MM Cartridge (new stylus from Jico). Squeezed an 'illegitimate' third tonearm on.
Right long arm is MC (fixed/difficult adjustments);
Rear Arm is MM (removable headshell/easy and quick adjustments of Tracking Force, Anti-Skate and VTA).
Left side arm MONO (fixed/difficult adjustments)

tomic601 that's quite a system you have put together. two of fthe Dynavector 505 Tonearms, I just looked at OEM's setup instructions, whew! https://www.dynavector.com/etechnical/505manual.html You mentioned Peter at PNB. Did he make the custom 2 arm base?

Elliott - The plinth was made in Italy including the very well machined aluminum arm boards. the veneer is apple from Germany. Peter does some amazing plinths. He is a fellow member of San Diego Audio Guild… a true renaissance man ! i am working on some Panzerholtz armboards…. best to you….. a fun and great thread…. |
@tomic601 Can you offer a assessment of your experience with Panzerholz. I am a advocate of this material and encourage the use of it for audio purposes. |
