So many great golden era DD tables out there, what do you recommend for $1000?

Pretty much as the title says.
Have been looking for a while for a decent DD table to add to my lot.
Have bought a few lower end ones and ultimately been dissapointed.
Now I know there were/ are literally hundreds of choices from the Japanese Golden era of DD tables.
Looking for suggestions from actual owners of solid DD tables up to about $1000 .
I have read and read but nothing substitutes for real experience.
This would likely not be my primary table, my Garrard 401 has that position for now.

Thank you.

Hi uberwaltz,

I have a Pioneer QUARTZ PLL Electronic Full Automatic PL-630 DD turntable and I upgraded the headshell wires with ortofon LW-7N headshell wires.

I also upgraded the tonearm wire with CARDAS tonearm wire and the RCA turntable cables with KAB/CARDAS Spiral Air Litz cable with ETI RCA connectors.

This thing is built like a tank at 27 pounds and in mint condition and is very quiet when playing lp’s or 45’s. I’ve been meaning to put it up for sale for about 4 months now but just haven’t got around to it yet.

Here is a link: http://www.thevintageknob.org/pioneer-PL-630.html 

And on ebay I have almost 100 positive reviews with no negative reviews. See 2005tyray
