Is there such a thing as a good analogue turntable


I've read and participated in the forums for some time, but have not seen mention of automatic or semiautomatic turntables, perhaps for good reason. I have reason, though, to find one but do not want to compromise some very good amplification. I once had a B & O lateral tone arm (forget the model number) table, but that broke down after parts were no longer available. Thanks in advance for any help.

There are also some simple add on gizmos that will lift the arm @ the end of play (on manual TT's) but the platter keeps spinning. All of the mechanics are contained in the "add on" and they usually just "stick" to the top of the TT and require no mods. I would like to add one of these to my manual deck @ some point for those times when I am busy and/or fall off to sleep while listening.
