Good suggestion (Clearaudio Concept). Along the same line is another turntable from the same OEM, but a different brand name, and some interesting variations:

Absolute Sound review

The Marantz is another $100 cheaper than the Clearaudio Concept and includes a Clearaudio Virtuoso Ebony cartridge, an $899 value.
AudioAdvisor is selling the Pro-ject rpm 9.2 sans cartridge for $1500,
or with a Sumiko Blue Point Special EVO III phono cartridge for $1850.
Sounds like a pretty good deal. Any comments would be appreciated.

Just pulled the trigger on a used Clearaudio Concept turntable. Now I
need advice on a MC cartridge. Hana?
I have the Concept Wood. Just put the Hana SL on it a few weeks ago. LOVE it!!!
