Kent,

I think you may get more and better responses in the "analog" section.

Good luck,

You might be able to find a used VPI HW-19 Junior with an AQ or Rega arm for that budget.

The brand new Rega Planar 2 is in that price range or for just a little more, the new Rega Planar 3 is excellent.

A used REGA P3 or RP3 would be the answer. But, the cost of a cartridge is going to get in the way, so find a used deal that includes a cartridge with   the table,if possible. With a REGA table you could mount a $100 Ortofon 2M Red or go all the way up to a Dynavector 10X5 for $650. I have used this latter combo and it is well worth the money. Even after ive upgraded to a much more expensive setup, I still miss things about that REGA P3 with Dynavector 10X5! Also, there are a few upgrades that need too happen before you mount the 10X5. Groovetracer.com will show you the way! Enjoy the journey its half the fun!
