Any new turntable brands we should pay attention to ?

A new(ish) update from a long established company.
  Usual disclaimer, I've no financial or other business Interest in this company. Just a happy, UK based, customer.
  Merrill Williams REAL 101.2 fitted with Ikeda IT CR 407 arm and Ikeda
on-the-fly arm height adjuster.
Using Ikeda Kai and Audio Note IO Gold mc pickups installed in separate Ikeda headshells.  
  Superb-sounding, reasonably easy to set up and fuss free operation.
Comes with built-In, highly visible, LED strobe and easy to adjust speed control. Absolutely silent operation and excellent suppression of external 
and Internal vibrations. Not the cheapest turntable I've owned but
definately the nicest to use and really fun to listen to music with.

Analogueworks turntables are very good. I just heard one. It is easy to fit it and forget it. 

That S A M out of Croatia looks very intriguing....

I bought SAM Reference TT and I love it!
