What's your favorite $5-7000 turntable?

Depends on your wall shelf - how much weight it can carry.

Best lightweight option Rega P10 -complete package - under $7k - outstanding product.

If your shelf can take weight - Sota Saturn with vacuum and Eclipse $7k

Agree Kuzma R is very good but prices out at around $9k sans arm.

Sadly vacuum tables are out because of space limitations. Nowhere to put the air supply. 

Then just get a non vacuum Sota with reflex clamp - it's still a great deck - under your budget. They also have refurbished units for sale from Tim to time at great prices.

I’m curious to know what agoners think about the REGA P10. It is in the OP’s price range including the tonearm.

Fremers review is spot on - it's an outstanding total package solution.
