Turntable recommendation

Anyone have recommendations for a mid-priced turntable in the $750 - $1,500 range?

Have an Acurus P10 phono amp.  I can use the table & phono amp in either of two systems:  

(1) Acurus A150 amp, RL 11 pre amp or

(2) Krell KAV 250 with KAV 250-p.

I realize it's a broad question.  Revisiting vinyl and am trying to start as a "blank slate" with "expert" or experienced input.   Thanks for any input.

Thanks, the Project Carbon looked interesting.  Helpful to see it recommended.  I'm getting interested in the VPI's . . . have to find someone who is upgrading to get a decent used one.

I have been using my Thorens TD-166MkII since I bought it new in 1984. Reliable, sounds good (had it slightly modded six years ago), and compact. For me, it’s all I need. I have 2 ’arm wands, one with an Ortofon OM-30, and one with a Denon DL-160.
