Turntable around 2k

Looking for advice...wondering if I'm overlooking options. I loved my old Teres before circumstances required me to sell it. I don't think I will be able to afford another Teres as a replacement. I'd like to keep the budget arounf 2k for the table alone. I'm also interested in using an Origin Live Silver and a Denon 103R cart. I don't particularly care for Rega tables, or VPI tonearms. Just a personal preference. Should I reconsider the VPI 'package'? I'm curious about the Michell Gyro SE. Will the suspended design be a radical departure in sound from what I had with my Teres? Just looking for some insights. Forgive the brevity...typed on a phone in a airport.

For a suspended design a SOTA could be a nice option for you. I used to own a Nova Series V which would be out of your budget, but perhaps a Star or Sapphire could work for you. If you go to the SOTA site they have some deals on refurbished and demo models that could be of interest to you.

In a non-suspended design I now use a Scheu Analog Premier MkII with battery powered motor. New they are around your budget. Unfortunately they don't come up used very often. If you're interested in this table Hudson Audio is the importer and you can contact Tom Hills for more information.
