You really need to demo to be sure. A trip to somewhere like Cymbiosis near Leicester in England would be well worth your while.
I run a pretty high-end LP12 so I'd be biased to that option - but I've heard the Rega P8 on several occasions and been very impressed. You *might* squeeze an ex-dem RP10 in the UK for £2500 somewhere which I am sure is better again.
The LP12 needs very careful setup, if you don't have ready access to someone who can do this (e.g. Cymbiosis) I'd go for something more plug and play like the Rega. Certainly budget for this (£200/€280) if you buy it.
