Brian from audioadvisor has listened to a few in your price ranges
he said best said best selling is parasound jc3 jr
and that chord Huey & musical Surroundings are all pretty close
jc3+ was larger bass output was his top thought for higher price point
IVE listened to Esoteric and Audio Research phonoS and they are better with bigger bass( Lyra & Purpleheart cartridges )
the higher up you go the bigger bass is what I hear.
My thoughts
Have good journey
