I am currently using a Teac 2300s. It sounds pretty good to me...

Teac 3340S. Mine is 45 years old, restored 5 years ago. Sat for awhile and had to open it up to free up a couple relays but an excellent deck.  Spent a Saturday recording vinyl and the same song streamed to compare. Interesting results - fun day.
