I'd like to hear recommendations for Turntables under $5,000

I had a reconditioned Thorens TD-160 Super. I'd like to know from people who own them, What you recommend looking at? My focus is less than $3,000 but I'm in like with some of the old VPI Classics, Prime, Prime Signatures  which is why I say 3-5K in the title and am looking for recommendations on anything in this range? Make and model.

Michell Orbe is a fantastic turntable.

You make a point on DD vs BD, but too confining for what I was looking for. I did not want to restrict the audience other than the metrics I gave. If I had defined it further, no Kenwood and no Denon, but I hear you.

Although you didn't explicitly say so, it sounds like you're looking for another BD, like your Thorens or like the VPI turntables you named.  There's nothing wrong with that.

lewm; I just want good sound and my experience is limited so don’t be distracted by what I chose to list,... was just to get the conversation started.

I did not say that I hate tweaking TT's either and I do; just want to set it up and listen as best I can afford to.

NOTE: Likely a New Thread needed

Can Those Who Said a BIG Yes to Michelle, tell me why I don’t see any great reviews or maybe point me to them?

Can anyone who has Delphi Oracle say it is Excellent?, If so or if NOT can you comment on experiences.
