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 to Insert Photos in Audiogon Posts
ALL CREDIT TO DOGBERRY
I’m an old man (74), U can do it.
Hopefully this makes sense
INSERT Photo in an Audiogon Post
- Write some yap about your subject
- Open a new Window
- Find a Photo already uploaded to the web
- Yours (my flower)
- Any photo (DBX Speakers)
- RIGHT CLICK on the PHOTO
- Popup menu appears
- ‘copy image address’
- Back to Your Audiogon Post
- Click in Top bar: 6th icon from left: (mountains with moon)
- Popup window appears
- Paste URL in the box

My 3 Arm Turntable: Became the Jewel of my System, 8th Photo Here

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)

sksos that’s the 1st 4 arm TT I/we have seen here from their web site
many variations shown there https://www.kuzma.si/stabi-r-world-premiere-munchen-2018.html ’non flexible belt’. ............................................. I have a vintage 1958 Viking 75 (telex) 2 track stereo Tape Deck (play only) that came out of my Uncle’s Fisher President II that I inherited. It has a ’non flexible flat belt’, the outer one of this set. https://www.amazon.com/Replacement-Belt-Viking-Reel-Player/dp/B07GVJLCH4 ............................................. Tape Deck was from the ’crossover’ era: ’In-Line’ or ’Staggered’.
This shows 1. an erase head left (both tracks); and 2. centered: an ’in-line head’ (both L and R tracks ’in-line’ vertically (the final 2 track/half track accepted version) 3. 3rd head, one track only,, to the right, further along (staggared) ........................................... 4. Deck had a switch: a. ’in-line’ position used the center 2 track head for stereo playback, 3rd head disabled. b. ’staggered’ position used one track from the centered head, and the other track from the single track head further along. 5. eventually ’staggered’ method lost and the 3rd staggered head was eliminated. ........................................ I have a small collection of 2 track stereo tapes, some marked ’in-line’ and some marked ’staggered’ that came with the Fisher Console. They are not 15 or 30, but Pre-Recorded 7-1/2 IPS. They sound fabulous.

I have been trying to find a settlement with the idea of a Cantilever Sidebar TA Mounting Arm Board. The Bolt Down method commonly seen is simplistic and hopefully is not compromised as a design. I have a design in place for one of my Panzerholz Plinths to receive a Cantilever Side Bar TA Mount, where I have attempted to avoid the usually seen Bolt Down Fastening of the attachment. My design which lends itself quite nicely to being done in P'holz, is a interference fit Mortice and Tenon with a Flange to receive retaining fastenings into threaded inserts placed into the main plinth, as well as having two threaded inserts, inset into the Side Bar flange to receive fastenings to help release the part when not wanting it attached. The idea is for there to be a few parts produced, to be exchangeable, enabling working with differing lengths of Tonearm. Slots to be used for allowing setting up varying length TA's in Plinths or Arm Boards are something I have commenced avoiding quite a few years past, all leads back to the rigid coupling principles. My last two produced Plinths have extremely tight tolerances machined into the Plinth to receive the TA that is now used. The Producer of my most recent produced Plinth, has an identical dimension Plinth > TT > TA and they are settled with a Slot in their Plinth. Each to their own when it comes to such subjects. I will be in a position to learn if a sonic is affected between a Plinth Mounting and Side Bar Mounting a TA, I will be settling with that as the only goal.

@pindac sorry for slow response. I have so far somewhat limited experience combining various thickness of Panzerholtz with HRS ( Harmonic Resolution Systems ) products - Typically NIMBUS couplers. So far i have had sonic rewards by reloading my NAS, Optical Isolation, ROON Core and a variety of Linear PSU on to 20 + MM Panzerholtz shelves / platforms. Hopefully this helps. my analog components all utilize CORE audio and or HRS products. Best to you - I always enjoy your excellent contribution here Jim |
