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)

Clearaudio’s Innovation line allows for two arms, regardless of whether it’s the Compact, Innovation Wood, or Master. 


 

I own one with a frosted white platter and a Tri-Planar tonearm and have been quite happy.

I’ve shared info about P’holz and Equivalent Materials, in other threads.

There are Brands creating the Densified Wood Products using very closely followed production methods as used for P’holz.

I recently offered a Gon Member a Free Sample of Permali, preferably to be used as Sub Plinth, at a dimension of their choice. This was a sample I was offered by a individual who is producing Densified Wood parts to work within an Audio Set Up.

It would have been good to have received a feedback from somebody who has a experience of Vinyl that I admire, but the offer was not responded to.  

The Goldring Lenco GL 75 is seemingly well supported with Permali Parts by this individual.

I have been very impressed with a P'holz Puck Weight when compared to a Zavfino Puck.

The Permali is available, produced as a Peripheral Ring, which could be very interesting.
