Simaudio (used) LP5.3. A very good sounding phono with lots of options, and upgradable with the outboard PSU if you choose to go that route.
Has anyone heard the new Parasound JC3? I've heard thru the grapevine it's very special.
I am using a JLTI and like it very much..Sweet and tubelike without the hassles of tubes.....Excellent bass attack too.

Junglern,

Worthy suggestions, thus far! If considering valves, I'm using a Triode Corp of Japan, i.e. Tri, EQ3-SE that features 2 MC and 1 MM input.

My recollection is it was purchased, new, around your price range.

Good luck!
