Tonearm for Technics SP-15

I have a Technics SP-15 turntable with a Grace 707 arm and a Grace F9E cartridge with a Soundsmith new stylus.  This combination sounds great but is limiting.  The 707  tonearm has a fixed headshell and it does not allow me to easily swap other MM  high compliance catridges or match compliance requirments MC cartridges.  Suggestions welcome from those more expert than I.

Professional 100PN version is quite interesting:

OTHER ARMS with VTA on the FLY that fit on the SP15?

VTA on the FLY seems to be the feature to have to make swapping headshells easy enough to do it without hesitation. One arm, 3 headshells: a MM, a MC, a Mono, ready to go.

Other that the bejeweled EPA 100 or 250, there must be other maker’s arms that fit.

JVC Victor 7045?

Is JVC Victor 7085 too long to fit under the dust cover?

Acos Lustre GST-801 should fit, I can measure mine.

other VTA/FLY models that fit?

Reminder: REMOVABLE HEADSHELL

This is an example of a JVC Victor with proper rubber gasket with no sag

these people make a separate VTA mechanism for SAEC and Fidelity Research Arms.

Yeay? Nay?
