Best phono player for newbie with good 2 ch system

I'm getting interested in phono but don't want to spend thousands! 

Right now my system consists of:

KEF r900
KEF r400b subs (3x)
Emotiva xpa-1 preamp w/phono
Parasound A21
Cambridge cxn v2 network streamer

What are some good "highish-end" options without breaking the bank?

If you have a solid stand you can't go wrong with a Kuzma Stabi-S IMHO.

Thank you all.  Since this is new to me, I dont want to spend thousands.  I was looking at the Pro-Ject to dip my toe in the water as I accumulate albums...

Technics SL1200GR is the best option for you, something about $1800
And if it’s too much there is SL1200 mk7 cheaper.

Both are brand new Direct Drive turntables. Do not mix it up with an old SL1200mk2

Remember, you'll need a good way of cleaning your vinyl that should be in your budget.
