Phono Amp Recommendations

I'm going to be setting up a second analog system and will need a good phono amp. My primary phono amp is an Artemis Labs PL-1 and I do like it a lot so comparison to this phono amp if you've heard it would be useful.
The budget is about $2K and I'd like it to have some fairly easy variety in loading and maybe gain as well although I'm into low gain cartridges. I'm considering a Statement Grado for the second system although I haven't made up my mind and am also thinking Koetsu.
I like to make my dollars count so I'm open to used or I'm pretty accomplished diy. I was looking at kandkaudio phono amp but so far my e-mail questions haven't been answered so...?? What do you recommend?

Thanks for the responses so far. I'm investigating what I can about each one. Too bad one can't easily find a one stop shop to listen to everything. Reviews and feedback from actual users certainly helps in the decision making process.

Kevin did get back to me and answered some questions that I had. Apparently, he was just busy for a while. I'm more intrigued than ever as it seems that the components are quality. Similar to an Art Audio Vinyl Reference.

Anyone one build one yet who wants to comment or e-mail me?
