Can you recommend a turntable in the range of $1500  that would pair well with the ZP3?  
I'm looking at the Marantz TT-15S1, but I'm not sure...

Thanks for your help.

The Rega TT in the classifieds here looks to be a pretty sweet deal.

I have to agree about Rega tables. I have an RP3 with an Exact2 cartridge and the TTPSU power supply for the motor. I use the white belt, and I have the Groovemaster Reference sub-platter, Delron platter, counterweight and record weight. Very happy with it.

I just added a longer comment on this in another thread, https://www.decware.com/cgi-bin/yabb22/YaBB.pl?num=1506861885, but a used Thorens TD125, SOTA Sapphire, or ClearAudio Champion would also be excellent options in that price range.  All are capable of really outstanding performance, with the Thorens the best of the lot if it's set up properly.

I'm with Archie on this one. I had fully manual Rega table labeled Goldring and switched it for a Technics 1200 with KAB modifications. The Technics is very easy to use and sounds great. For example, try and lower a record brush with the platter spinning. It slows down the platter and by extension puts wear on the belt. To lift a disc and turn it over you either have to grab it quick or turn the platter off. The arm has a height adjustment to accommodate all cartridges. A Rega arm is not height adjustable without a special little spacer things which are a pain in the ass. Uncle Lon got his table all tricked out with the subplatter and all that stuff, which you would probably need for it to sound its best. But I think that the Technics removes all this bullshit about belts and all. The modifications that KAB does are the silicone fluid arm damper, the strobe disabler, the outboard power supply; RCAs on the rear to accommodate choice of cables.

Rivieraranch, all true, but all that bullshit is moot if you take a few steps.
The necessity for modifications on a Rega are overstated IMO. Upgraded belts and subplatters aren't needed per se, they just improve things a bit. Grab the record with steady hands and can flip it easily. The belt issues are way overstated. The belt will eventually wear out, sure, but that's a $20 fix to buy a new one.
Regas come with a cord that basically eliminates grounding issues, a plus IMO.
Granted, if you love swapping cartridges, Rega is a PITA because of the needed spacers. But, if you are fine sticking with a Rega cartridge, it's an extremely easy way to ensure a proper alignment with no fuss.

It's important not to judge the sound of a KAB modified 1200Mk2, as Riviera recommends, by the sound of a stock 1200Mk2.  The "shortcomings" of the original 1200s were pretty much eliminated by KAB.  When Kevin did mine in 2007 though, it doubled the price.  The 1200GR is better than the 1200Mk2 and the 1200G is in a whole nother class (and price).

After 13 years with DD Technics, I would never go back to a belt drive.  There is room for preference and while it's not showing up in this thread, there seems to be a lot of prejudice when people argue BD vs DD TTs.  I suppose there are tradeoffs between the two types but I haven't found any negatives to my 1200s that would push me towards a BD.

Upgrading any TT might turn some off so my advice (with all my prejudices, LOL) would be to go with a 1200GR (~$1.6K) if money is an issue and a 1200G (~$4K) if it is not.

I'm with you on that Lon.  I think first off, someone needs to decide if they are comfortable with the idea of tweaking and upgrading a TT versus getting something acceptable off the shelf.  I have a hunch you'd have to go farther up the Rega line for that as I found too with the Technics.
