Going Vinyl..my god which table!!!!!!!!!!

I've decided to become a vinyl addict. I'm as excited about playig with the 'parts' of a TT as much as the music itself.

Here's my dilema..I have no idea which table would be best to start with and be happy with for years to come. Here are some of my ideas..I'd like to spend under $1000.

Rega P3
Goldring GR1.2 or GR2
Pro-ject 1 expression, or debut III
Thorens TD-170 or 190
Music hall MMF-5 or 7 (I can get a demo or used 7 for under 1000)

I know Rega's are legendary, but what's up with the freaky colors on their website? They look like phones for teenage girls!

The Pro-jects and Goldrings are very good tables for the money..

Music halls seem nice, but I've hear concerns over build quality etc. It seems as though a less expensive pro-ject or goldring would better a music hall?

Anyway, I don't have any records...I need to build my collection.

Equipment I have:
Rotel RCD-1072 cd player
Rotel 1066 pre amp processor
Sherborn amp
Gallo Reference III speakers
Sony 9000ES SACD player

As always, thanks for the time you take to reply...VERY appreciated.
