(2 arms or potential for 2 arms or more)

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)

I've had a Clearaudio Ovation for years, and just ordered an Innovation Wood (black/piano black). It's coming with a 12" Universal, plus an extra arm-board for the 9" Universal I have on my Ovation now. My Lyra Atlas Lambda SL will go on the 12" arm and a mono cart is on order (due in a couple weeks) for the 9" arm.

Exciting plans.

My friend has the JVC CL-P3 3 arm plinth, currently 1 tonearm, setup for his future plans.

My Innovation arrived yesterday. I started setting it up last night and got it dialed in today. Really enjoying the upgrade over my Ovation.

Second cartridge for the 9" arm is due in a few weeks.

Innovation Wood

Two Michell Gyrodec tonearms can be mounted with relative ease; perhaps even the Orbe allows this possibility.

congrats, it's going to be a treat moving instantly from one cartridge to the other.

it looks like the rear can be a longer arm.

and, a dust cover which is a must for me. 

@elliottbnewcombjr   it's a 9" arm..... "maybe" a 10" could fit under the dust cover but a 12"  it's not possible if you want to use the dust cover as well.
