The
Reloop are probably good. But I suspect the
Stanton have short straight tonearms, which is good for a DJ but bad for HiFi.
There are some low cost
Lenco, but I don't think the L85 tonearm makes the grade. That is my complaint about the LP60 and similar. The tonearm is inadequate, but it does not meet a true HiFi standard.
The
Project Elemental has a better tonearm than the LP60, but not by much, and the non-rectangular form is not going to serve you well. You need a rectangular turntable. These usually come with a cover to help keep dust off of them.
The
Pioneer PL-990 has essentially the same tonearm as the LP60.
Though certainly the quality of the motor and the drive are important, for me, the measure of the turntable in in the Tonearm.
If you look at the tonearm on the
Reloop 1000 or the
2000, you can see it is much more sophisticated than the other turntables mentioned.
Here is the
Reloop 2000 -
Legacy Products : Reloop (Legacy) : RP-2000 MK3 Turntable
Same with the
Reloop 1000 -
Legacy Products : Reloop (Legacy) : RP-1000 MK3 Turntable
These would be very rugged for home use, and while rugged I'm not sure how well they would hold up for a traveling DJ.
The
Stanton T.52 has a very short tonearm, good, but strictly for DJ use -
Stanton T52 Turntable (Belt Drive, Analogue)
Same with the
Stanton T.62, short straight tonearm -
Stanton T.62 Direct-Drive Turntable with Stanton 500 cartridges
You should be able to find review of the
Reloop 1000 and
Reloop 2000. Try
YouTube. I think they are generally good, but they are primarily DJ turntables, and you need to make sure they come with a cartridge. Many DJ Turntables do not come with a cartridge.
My reluctance to recommend something like the
Audio Technica LP60 is that I think it is going to give you just enough of a taste of what it is like to have a turntable, that you are going to want to quickly upgrade, and that means spending money twice. Though I understand that budgets can be tight, I think if you can move up to one of the models I suggested, it is going to be a satisfying turntable that is going to last a long time.
In my mind, of those you listed, the Reloop 1000 and 2000 seem to stand above the rest. But remember to find out if the Reloop turntables come with a cartridge. If not, that is an added expense.
