So many great golden era DD tables out there, what do you recommend for $1000?


Pretty much as the title says.
Have been looking for a while for a decent DD table to add to my lot.
Have bought a few lower end ones and ultimately been dissapointed.
Now I know there were/ are literally hundreds of choices from the Japanese Golden era of DD tables.
Looking for suggestions from actual owners of solid DD tables up to about $1000 .
I have read and read but nothing substitutes for real experience.
This would likely not be my primary table, my Garrard 401 has that position for now.

Thank you.

In my experience, with more unnecessary connections, there will be a sonic price to pay. Especially with phono.
@uberwaltz Luxman AS4III switch.
However, the phono connection is the worst place you could ever install a switch. The rule of thumb is to keep the connection as short as possible from tonearm/cartridge to phono preamp/sut.
@uberwaltz  
in the phono stage signals of the microvolt order pass, use of commutation boxes and switches can happen as well as worsen the sound of capturing noises and hum; don't ruin everything.
Rather it changes pre phono looking for some pre amp also vintage that has more phono inputs or add another preamplifier.

About where my thoughts lay.
Well the sut has two inputs so will leave at that.
Note to self ..... Don't be lazy!
