Best vintage or modern tonearms for Denon DP 80


Hello,

I am looking for a tonearm for a Denon DP80 TT.
Are there any suggestions for a tonearm under $3000.00
easy to set up.

What do you think of a PA 5000 tonearm?
Audiocraft 4000, Victor 7054, Victor 7082
Sony PUA 7, PUA 1500, 1600

Thank you in advance.

For under $3000, the choice is VERY wide for excellent tonearms. There is almost nothing you cannot consider at that price or under, if you are willing to purchase second hand. Further, the tonearm is best mated to the cartridge, rather than to the turntable. So, consider what cartridges you favor in making your choice. What sort of plinth?
I am having a plinth made of mdf, with compartments to add load, delrin mat by Hans L. That has 2 boards: drilled for victor 7084 and
SME /graham, with extra ones for future use

I did buy a victor 7084 tone arm but would eventually like to add a dynavector 507mkii or graham phantom supreme.

I like the dynavector because I have been told it is a good match for the Denton DP80 and I like being able to change carts. I have a few vintage ones: grace f9D,9E, 9ERuby, supex 2000 ruby, supex 900
Garrett p77, garrot p87 mc.(thanks to the forum). Also looking for Lyra Delos .

There aren't many graham ph supremes on the 2nd hand market probably because it is a keeper for most buyers.
I don't really think my budget can stretch to retail price GPS , if a dynavector 507 mkii can give me most of what I want @ 2nd hand price.

I currently have an avid TT with SME IV arm, Benz ace sl cart that I don't want to change around. So the Denon TT will be my changeable setup for tone arms +carts. I looked @audiocraft 4000 but so dear that I may as well buy 2 nd hand modern or even retail gps.

Thanks everyone for suggestions/recommendations
