All you guys are missing a great potential recommendation:
Rega RP8/Alphetta 2/Aria which comes out at $5700 a bit more, but here is what you get:
1: An extremely musical, no fuss, table with a great cartridge all ready alligned. The new ultra light weight plinth with extreme damping offers a very fast energetic presentation with low amounts of stored energy which makes the table sound more lively then a VPI.
2: An extremely good cartrige, the Aphetta 2 is a fantastic $1,900 cart that when you purchase together with the table Rega takes off $700 from the price of the cart. The new Aphetta 2 is an incredible cart that gives many upper tier cart a run fot their money. The cart employs some novel technology and is a world class cart.
3: An Aria phono stage, look at Tone Audio's review, the Aria again gives alot of expensive phono stages a run for their money, it is quiet, has great dynamics, and has fantastic resoloution, and THEY ARE ALL MADE TO WORK TOGETHER!
So here you have a fantastic well engineered package from one of the best brand in audio.
We sell this very same package and it is one fantastic analog rig that is literally no fuss you can have the entire setup running in 20mins!
