Help with MC Cartridge Recommendation to Swap from Ortofon 2M Black MM


I'd like to dip my feet into the MC world.  What would be a good introduction as I am going from an Ortofon 2M Black MM?  

Here's my setup

Manley Chinook tube phono preamp
Primaluna Dialogue Premium HP integrated
PSB Imagine T2 loudspeakers

I'd like to stay south of $1k.  I listen to all sorts of music, but on vinyl it would be in this order:

Jazz 50%
Rock 40%
Folk/Other 10%

I've never had a MC so I don't know where to start.  Thanks all!!!

My transition from the Ortofon 2M Black MM to MC......
 - Sumiko Blue Point Special EVO III - 2.5 mV High Output - solid performer, a little bit on the bright side but very detailed throughout the audio spectrum. Mine anyway. A bargain at +/- $430 on Ebay
- On to a Audio Technica AT33PTG/II 0.3mV Low Output - again another solid performer that seemed (to my ears) very similar to the 2M Black.
- Current - Audio Technica AT ART9 0.5mV High Output - For the time being, and I think it'll be for a long time to come! Rock solid with all types of music. I purchased the ART9 primarily because of all the hype here on Audiogon and have no regrets. Unfortunately I am not capable of accurately or thoroughly describing the nuances of each individual cartridge above. I do however know what I'm hearing with the ART9. It's pretty awesome and getting more so each day. 
 
@jbhiller  I prefer the Benz over the 2M, as I find it to be a more detailed cartridge. I do like the 2M though, but found it to be slightly heavy on the bottom end. If I was to go back to a MM though, it would be the Black without a doubt.
@jbhiller  Did you buy a MC and if so, what did you get and how does it compare with the 2M Black?
I bought a used Dynavector 20xh Soundsmith retip here on Audiogon for $360.  But, I haven't been able to use it as my Roksan Radius mk1 table is out of commission. 

I bought a used Origin Live Aurora mk1 for $750, yet it's not here yet.  I'll follow-up shortly.  

I do have to say the Ortofon 2M Black has a big, almost bombastic sound.  It could be a touch more graceful, delicate and articulate, but it's a fantastic cart. 
If it’s a Level 2 SS retip in great shape that’s a really nice price. If it mates well with your setup, you are in for a treat!

I use the re-tipped 20XH on my Townshend Rock 3 / Ittok setup (into a Juicy Music phono stage) and it is spectacular -- detailed, layered, smooth, dynamic, nuanced, and very well balanced. There is an organic wholeness to the presentation that immerses and involves the listener, and invites listening sessions deep into the night.

This has been my "goto" cart for years, so I’d say if you don’t get this then arm synergy is amiss, or your setup is not precise. I use 2.0g VTF, VTA has arm tube exactly parallel, 1.0g for bias, and Baerwald nulls set up very carefully with bright light / magnifying lens. Enjoy!
