NAD or Cambridge Audio at different entry level price points or DIY one if you can.
On the decks<I’ve had a couple of mk. 4’s for years but just got a Rega 3 to try and I like the sound from it. If you are playing a lot of dance 12”, 7” and switching between speeds the 1210’s are perfect. If you’re playing jazz lp’s the rega is worth a look. Cart’s make a big difference, I think £250 is around the sweet spot for bang for buck.
Also no phono preamp yet apart from a very budget one, so open for suggestions there also.
