Whats a good Integrated with a good phono section

my Son wants to get into vinyl and is looking for a good integrated amp with a good phono section.  his budget is probably up to $1200.

An amp should really be chosen first by its ability to drive a pair of speakers.  Not by what phono stage it has.  What good would a killer built-in phono stage be if the rest of the integrated amp could not properly drive his speakers?  

So what kind of speakers does he have?   

Concentrate on powering the speakers first and then worry about the phono stage.  Besides, a  phono stage is just a feature and there are plenty of entry level external phono stages that would far outperform built-ins found in a $1200 integrated anyway. 

Croft- A bit under your $ range used, a bit over New w/ discount.

Rogue - hands down

A separate phono stage will sound better than 95% of built in phono stages.

Alternatively, get him something like this Naim, and a separate phono section. I'm not sure how old your son is, but if he's anything like mine, and his friends, they want all the digital, computer, and streaming possibilities as well as vinyl. This Naim with a separate phono will get him all that: http://www.usaudiomart.com/details/649304981-naim-unitiqute-2/
