TT suggestions -- please

I've decided to go to the well and purchase a new TT as opposed to upgrading my HW19. I have set a budget of 2,500. My speakers are Innersound Eros, driven by the ESL crossover amp and an Aragon 4004. I have a Coda preamp and a Monolithic phono pre. I am asking for what you think will be a good match with this setup. My room is not on a slab, so I am wondering if this necessarily eliminates non-suspension type TTs.

One dealer suggested a Nottingham Spacedeck. The Nottingham is supposedly warmer, like Linns, and with my stats, supposedly be a good fit. Any truth to this?

Thanks in advance.

TWL -- what is your Teres sitting on? How does this affect sound quality of a turntable? Is it a significant issue, or relatively minor? I have a very heavy wooden cabinet that is VERY rigid (solid cherry, probably over 100lbs).

The reason I ask, is that I've been contemplating upgrading my Technics to a different TT, after I realized I'm getting a large tax return. Since I live in a small apartment, there really isn't any choice of where I place the TT. I could set it up on the bottom of the cabinet, or on a shelf...
