Turntable Shoot Out $2000-3000


I have been out shopping. The sweet spot for high end TT's appears to be squarely in this price range. VPI Scoutmaster/JMW, Kuzuma Stabi/Stogi, Nottingham SpaceDeck/Ace Space, Michell Gyro/Rega, Wilson Benesch Circle Turntable/ACT 0.5 Tonearm, the upcoming Galibier Sarac. All have good pedigrees/reputations, all are in this(reasonably) affordable price range, all sound somewhat different, but which offers the most sonic bang for the buck??? Any one with direct comparative experiences? Thanx.

Lots of good tables in this range. Everyone has an impressionable favorite. It's going to be hard to point you in the right direction. I don't think you've listed any poor choices. The differences are going to be hair splitting unless you are a seasoned vinylphile. Assuming you pick a table that has ardent followers, just abut anything you pick should be fine. IMO, this is the price range sonically where the tables start to get really good to my ear.
