The best "no fuss" turntable for $5K or less?

I am wanting to replace my LP12 Valhalla/Ittok with a less fussy, more "set it and forget it" deck. I live in an area of the country that is a audio wasteland. There are no dealers to set up or tune up a sensitive table like the Linn. I will spend up to Super Scoutmaster money. I am interested in all suggestions.

you may want to check into the Nottingham Spacedeck. I personally own the Nottingham Dais, and can vouch for the fact that it is very low fuss.

I agree my Rega P9 was easy to set up and use but I found that my Galibier Gavia was just as easy with highly improved sound. If your budget is 5K with arm and cart.Galibier is introducing a deck which will sell for around 2500. plus arm and cart. I believe that this may be an excellent value and a giant killer at that price.
The bonus is that Thom Mackris is fantastic to work with.
