first time vinyl

Ready to step into the vinyl world after reading all the hype. Where is a good level to begin with approximately 700 -1000 starting point?

I've upgraded since, but that was a nice entre into vinyl.

The KAB-modded Technics 1210 is very fun too. You'll dig these. The Rega P5 swings better than the above, BUT it is a tad more pricey.
