Best Analog for $10K

I’ve spent considerable money and time assembling a great all-digital two-channel audio system. I want to experience vinyl reproduction. My budget is $10-12K for turntable, arm, cartridge, phono cable, and phono stage.
Two things I do not want. One is to get on a spiraling upgrade path. The second is to avoid too much fiddling and tweaking and adjusting.
I am open to used or refurbished equipment, as well as new gear.
I primarily listen to Jazz and Rock music. Very little classical.
Thoughts?

Technics SL1200G  for DD  and will compete with BD and will probably last you forever

Allnic H-1202 or Herron VTPH-2A (~$3500) - I am looking  for either one of these now as  I use a Lehman Black Cube se2 and ready to move up. 
Acoustic Signature Turntables -for belt =  German engineering and easy to set up. Their tone arm is easy to set.  Set it and forget it. 
To me it doesn't  matter how many albums you have if what you do have you listen to. 
Enjoy the journey , I too crossed back over the tracks and spend at least 50% of my time on vinyl and enjoy it more.
