I have gone insane, need help

I just started into vinyl this summer, and have gone completely insane with tables. Need some help and advice on thinning the herd as I am just flat running out of space. Would love to have an idea on which ones you would recommend keeping and why.

Here is the list:

Linn Lingo LP 12 cirkus model with trapmolinn and Ekos arm

Yamaha PF-800, actually have two of them

Yamaha PX-3

Thorens TD 124, thing is new in box with wood grado arm

Thorens TD 160 super, completely redone by tubeaudioproducts

Thorens TD 165 kinda beat

Thorens TD 165 with arm lift, really great shape

Dual 1229 nearly mint, it was another NOS

Technics SL 1200 Mk 1

couple other little toyish ones not worth saying

These are all the ones I currently possess

Ha Jaybo, that was what I was thinking (keep em all), except I can barely reach my equipment to turn anything on and off. I was debating on selling the Linn and keeping the rest.

Heck I forgot one, a Rega R3

Ah, the GSXR encouragements are not helping, since I have wrecked a couple before, and the girlfriend is not liking the idea that I have been looking at a couple lately :). The hardest thing with the tables is that I like them all, they all have something about them that I really like. They are the most fun component I have.

Personally my favorite is the Td 160. In part because I am really impressed by the Thorens, and in part because it is the best looking one out of the group In my opinion. It is black with a mirror polished platter, and unfortunately I hear with my eyes more than I probably should. I am going to try and use the same arm on a few of the tables to see which one truly sounds the best. At this point my analysis is highly flawed as they all use different arms and cartridges.
