XLR Turntable

I’m looking for a balanced turntable with cartridge. Is it possible to get one under a grand?

If you’re looking for a turntable with cartridge and XLR connection for under a grand, just shop for a turntable and cartridge that is within 1k budget and rewire the phono connection to XLR cable.
