Then your first scope choice IS even more important, you need to set your sights above the cheapest entry level DSO's and any thoughts of secondhand equipment in the same class including CRO's.  :--

I’ll buy the Gossen, LCR multimeter and the Rigol Z.

Sounds like a good plan, please come back and post some pictures of the new equipment and one of your existing Hioki meter once you have obtained them. Otherwise people here may get tired of your ongoing requests and banish you to the tyre-kickers category which is a really bad label to have.

Buying test equipment is like buying anything nowadays: it will be outdated in a couple of years. I buy a different oscilloscope every few years (so far mostly used ones). The same goes for other test equipment. When I have a need for a certain piece of equipment I buy it. When I no longer need a piece of equipment (upgraded or not used for a long time) I sell it again. My point is: focus on what kind of projects are on your workbench right now and figure out how much you want to spend to get those projects finished (quicker). Also realise that test equipment depreciates faster than a car so you'll never get back what you have spend.

Better tools will help to do a job quicker but the value for money decreases exponentially. If you have no hammer then any cheap crap hammer will be a major improvement. If you already have a hammer, a hammer with a more ergonomic grip (less strain on your hand) might allow you to put in 20% more nails on a day so there is a benefit but less than going from no hammer to having one cheap crap hammer.
There are small lies, big lies and then there is what is on the screen of your oscilloscope.

No problems with budget? That must be nice.

Then by all means get the best, most expensive scope you can find. LeCroy makes some great high-end scopes, as do Tek and Agilent. Some of these can cost more than my home and my car combined.

I still don't believe a word the OP says. He says no more than $200, then says no budget. In another thread he says he wants a Gossen or a Fluke. He only wants to spend $200 on an oscilloscope but can buy a DS1054Z, two Gossens and an LCR meter. This is either a troll or a "tire kicker" waste of time.

OK, if you are to be believed:

Buy a DS1054Z and hack it
Buy 2 BM257S (or BM869S) from www.tme.eu
Buy a DER EE DE-5000

This will be your best buy for the money.

If you want to spend lots of money for no reason:

Buy some high priced oscilloscope for no reason other than you have too much money and have no idea what you want
Buy 2 Gossen multimeters
You will have no more idea what to do with these things but you will be happy you spent lots of money.

If you don't know what to buy and why you should buy it, then ask the questions and follow the advice of the people here. If you have too much money and don't care about costs and what you know, buy what you want and stop bothering other people with your naive questions and/or contradictory requirements and arguments.

And you are somewhat unusual in that respect, most have very limited funds and are satisfied with equipment that's only "good enough" for their needs and that's OK too.

Elv ?

How many outputs do you want/need ?
I didn't think these would be popular in my market but I've sold a couple of SPD3303X-E's lately to very satisfied customers.
