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)

Micro Seiki DDX 1000 takes 3 arms https://www.vinylengine.com/library/micro-seiki/ddx-1000.shtml Steve at VAS has one, saw it, didn't see it operate or hear it. |
Luxman PD-444. https://www.usaudiomart.com/details/649982315-luxman-pd-444-direct-drive-turntable/ Advantage, not too deep like my JVC PL-2, wider solution Lots more technology going on than meets the eye. Track system with 'locking' plates for arm mount and location. Unique motor lifts weight of platter force on bearing. Two 1/4" plates in plinth, built in a/b box for choosing side or rear arm, thus only 1 cable out to preamp or phono stage. I helped a member here find/buy/set it up. ................................................ We got two Micro Seiki Arms, right side short, rear long https://www.ebay.com/itm/393976715306

JVC Victor Plinth CL-P3 (3 removable tonearm boards) https://www.topclassaudio.com/web/chi/photo_gallery_details.jsp?gid=1515 After I squeezed my 3rd arm on the 2 arm Plinth, I found out about the very rare CL-P3. Eventually, excitedly I found one in Hong Kong. Sooooo close to buying it, then luckily I asked seller to measure the distance to the far corner of the main right side board. He send me a photo with a ruler from spindle to corner. Turns out, it was less than the CL-P2 distance and would NOT fit my 12.5" long arm. In order to keep the plinth smaller, they changed the shape of the tonearm boards, cutting a curve to move in closer to the TT81. In just enough that my arm would not fit. Left armboard also has the curved arm board to keep plinth smaller. I just found a CL-P3 for sale, showed it to a friend I met here, he bought it. He will pick arms that fit. |
