Technics is a guarantee of quality and there are many engineers who have worked on this project; also Matsushita has plenty of money to support an idea up to the finished product.

Can we say the same for competitors? I have big doubts!

a used Wave Kinetics NVS is a great 2 arm turntable......and you can find one in the $20k range.

very low noise, great energy, and really great build quality. i’d view it as a step above those other choices you list.

i owned a restored Garrard 301, and own the NVS myself.......so realize how big a step it is.

Interesting choice of tables. The wave Kinetic is a fabulous table but I am very nervous with used tables. It does not take much to damage a bearing.
Of the three you have chosen I think the AMG is the best. I do not like turntables with separated motors. The Kronos is a plain Jane turntable in a flashy chassis. The counter rotating business in the more expensive units is just plain silliness. You really should consider the SME 20/12.
It is one of the best isolated and stabilized turntables you can buy and has a build quality above the ones you have chosen. It also has a great record hold down system.  You can get a second arm board and switching between arms is a snap.
