help choosing a turn table


good evening,

I will be purchasing my first turn table..  it will be for a second system using a Lyngdorf TDA 1120 combined with a pair of monitor audio gold 100 speakers .  Budget is preferably < 2k and ideally < $1,500..  music to be played is likely classic rock, 80 s music, maybe some alternative.. want detailed sound that is not fatiguing .. appreciate everyone’s input thanks

Another vote for the Technics 1500c (or the 100 and a separate phono stage).

I bought the 1500 about a year ago and love the sound. I have a Nagaoka mp 110 and will be swapping that in soon. The 2M red is probably the only weakness. I am using the internal phono stage in lieu of the built in stage on my nad 3050le.
