Phono stage for second system

My winter project is here.  Trying to set up a second system for my home office.

Will by mainly a vinyl system.

Space is an issue as the room is only 12 by 14.

Any suggestions for a small foot print phono stage in the 3-4 K price range.  Probably solid state, but open to tubes as long as the unit is one box solution.

Thanks and happy Thanksgiving.

+1 on the iPhono3 Black Label

Very small footprint, 85dB noise floor, gain settings from 36 to72 dB, it sounds amazing.

Another vote for Sutherland. Loved my 20/20 with LPS. Solid support from Ron as well in case of questions, etc

I also built an older Hagerman Cornet and it was very good, probably keep up with $1k stages.

Another person I know went through an Icon Audio and Modwright PH9.0, ended up with the Trumpet and is very happy.

Another vote for GN PH-10. So versatile with on-the-fly loading. Sounds incredible.

I've also really enjoyed the Softone Model4 tube stage.
