Obviously 1 tt with 2 arms and an adjustable phone stage. There is no question about this. The Kuzma Stabi R is mentioned above.
One turntable with two arms, or two turntables with one each - which would you prefer?
Which would you prefer, if budget allowed: one turntable with two tonearms or two turntables with one each? What would your decision criteria be?
And the corollary: one phono preamp with multiple inputs or two phono preamps?
Assume a fixed budget, but for the purposes of this question, the budget is up to the responder. Admittedly for this type of setup, there will be a sizeable investment once all components of the chain are factored in.
I'm curious to hear how people would decide for themselves the answer to this question. Or maybe you've already made this decision - what do you like about your decision or what would you differently next time?
Cheers.

I prefer having 2 turntables and two arms over one TT 2 arms. Why, because when I had multiple arms on one turntable I wiped out my Koetsu reaching over the back of the TT to lower the arm. On the second TT I have a tonearm with headshell so it is easy to swap cartridges. My main TT is my reference which I like to keep with best arm & cartridge.

@lewm … “I think that makes me —- crazy”. 👍👍👍👍. I mean, it’s OK… most folks think the amount of money I put into my system is crazy… although… three or more hours of listening a day… and the enjoyment I get, seems well worth it. If having many TT and cartridges makes you happy. |
@dover Now that's the solution! |
