Two Arm Turntables

You could simply keep your turntable and use an arm pod. Here is a link to a good friend and audio nut Stefano. www.theanalogdept.com/stefano_bertoncello.htm
Look at his system and note the arm pods for his Garrard 301.

It may be sonically better to have two tables if you have the room, especially if you are partial to VIP product, none of which can really be fitted with two arms.

I really appreciate these suggestions and would welcome any other ideas. Honestly, I'm too inexperienced to say I'm partial to VPI. The Scout is the only turntable I have listened to in the past 20 years. I bought based on reviews, affordability, stability of the brand, upgradability, and resale value. Now that I'm hooked on vinyl, with a great LP collection, I'm interested in broadening my experience. Turntables are highly visible living room product - two is too much, IMHO. The Lenco seems appealing, but I like the idea of being able to get a fully checked out Garrard from Loricraft, with a power supply upgrade, maybe Kokomo bearings, etc. I'm trying to learn more about the Lenco, but Garrard seems to have more of this type of 3rd party support, above and beyond the plinth, vs. other vintage brands, at a cost...

Yes the Garrard's are great, they are the gold standard for sure, but just the player without a plinth is $1500-$2000. After you add a plinth, kokomo bearings and tonearm it gets pretty pricey. The lenco players in contrast start at about $300 for a good one, and arguably have similar performance.

Thanks. Do you a sense for what it would cost to get a decent plinth for the Lenco?
