Clueless and Seeking advice on TT purchase


Hi All:
I need a turntable without breaking the bank. Range about $1,200 - 2,000. Must admit I've lost track (actually I was never on track) of what is what in this price range and I've been so busy I can't spend that much time checking it out so I seek your advice. I see several units out there.

Basis 1400

Oracle MKII

The good news is that it is going in a system that is almost all diy by yours truly so it won't make that much difference anyway! I'm using my proprietary zip-cord for interconnects.

Thanks in Advance

Sincerely
I remain,
clueless

I agree,the Scout is a steal at some of the used prices..thats my recmmendation to you.I didnt think of the Scout/Robin arm before.
Still Cluelss?
Jee,you sound clueless!
If I had only the 1 choice out of the Basis or the Oracle,I would pick the Oracle.
In that price range,if I had 6 choices I would pick the Oracle.
You can always upgrade the table or mod.the Rega arm later.
I hope this makes you less clueless. :~)
