Tonearm recommendations

I Just purchased a vintage Empire 208 Turntable without a tonearm. I'm looking for advice on a easy install replacement arm $500-$1000.

Get a 750 in the length you like as your denon will handle even the 12" but you can get the 750 in the 9" with the upgraded tone arm cable (must) for well in your budget. may even get a longer one. you do have to buy a tone arm cable though they don't come with one. figure out if you need a straight or angled plug were it goes into the bottom of the arm. I got a 750 12" look on my profile and see it mounted if you want a picture.
