Good automatic TT's


Hello,
I'd appreciate suggestions for a good used automatic TT. I'm very happy with my reference table but sometimes I like to listen without the need to jump up at the end of an LP to prevent damage to an expensive stylus. Auto cueing would be good too for when the hand gets shaky from mind altering substances.
I had a JVC Q5F and it was OK with a record clamp and Ortofon MC-5. I see some Denons (47 and 59F,s) and even some B&O's in the $200-500 range. Any experience with these in terms of reasonable sound or just always listen sober?

The Technics straight line tracking tables, I think they were the SL line, were surprisingly good. The SL 15 was the top end but the SL 10 would probably be the best used. They used P mount and there use to be some good cartridges available for them. They were quite small and , I thought , very good looking. Stan
