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.

Bimasta.

All I meant was that there were/ are hundreds of Golden Era TT to choose from.

Not necessarily that there were also hundreds of GREAT ones to choose from.

Sorry for the confusion.

Hi Uber,
have you had more time to listen to your QL-A7? 
Did it come with the JVC arm (maybe the UA-7075? https://audio-heritage.jp/VICTOR/etc/ua-7082.html)

The arm does indeed look like the 7045.
However ZERO playtime yet as still waiting for the stepdown transformer to arrive and I am NOT taking any chances.
Has given me chance to clean it inside, although it was very clean looking internal already , but Deoxit never hurts!
Set it up with a NOS Glanz cartirdge so will be ready to hit the ground running when the stepdown shows up.
Hopefully this week although I am out of town for work all week anyway.
