I have just ordered a switch (Example 248) from Konrad at Dodocus Design. It'll look good beside my Majestic, because the faceplates are exactly the same size.
This switch will, in theory, allow me to connect three turntables to my Reflex M and switch between them. How should I connect the earth cables of the two Technics TTs; to the Dodocus or to the Reflex? The third TT has a Rega arm and so no earth cable.

I wanted to do something like this with two turntables into an Accession M but I was told that there would be capacitance issues between turntable & phono stage. How does this box avoid that?

Pass! I asked Graham some while back about building me something to do the job. He said it would be expensive. I think the Dodocus is significantly more expensive than Graham's estimate. I hope it works! Example 248 is the one I've ordered. http://dodocus.de/individuelle-umschalter.html

The Dodocus box will certainly be built well. I use a UBox6C for putting two phono amps (AccMM and AccMC) into the analogue input of the Majestic. Silky smooth switching with no audible effect on the signal.
I'll be interested to see how you get on Ifor!

Sorry if I'm stating the obvious with these answers: I'd try earthing cables to the switching box with each deck on its own and listen to hear if the hum is higher than connecting the earth cable to the Reflex phono stage ground terminal instead. Assuming the cartridges are MM the extra length of cable will bring 60-100pF if it's a Cusat50 and probably won't make much difference to the sound of your music.
