Tron Seven. If you are UK based then the PhoNote from Noteworthy in Aylesbury is a cut-down version of the same at under £2k Sterling.

A friend of mine just bought an Acqvox and has really been enjoying it. At the top end of your budget.

If you don't mind tubes and stretching your budget just a little the K&K Audio SE is a really fine phono stage. I owned one and my rock collection didn't suffer. Excellent bass and very quiet phono stage.
