Help with Turntable selection

Seriously I have an old BO TX table. When I upgrade I think the best table out there within reason is hands down....drum roll,...................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................VPI CLASSIC.

hard to go wrong with a VPI Scout.

One more in favor of the Scout...put a nice cartridge on it and it sings.

Scout, no contest. Avoid the Marantz (nee ClearAudio) as it plays like a $100 refurb.

I'll come down on a different side of the fence. Since I don't like tables with plastic platters, finding an unpleasant softness to them, and I am equally not enamoured of the geometry of the VPI arm, I would suggest the Nottingham. I don't own any of the tables mentioned but have experience with the Nottinghams, VPI and, though not the Marantz, the better Clearaudio models. Actually, I would prefer one of the better Rega tables to most of those mentioned, as well. YMMV.
