Cartridge for stock Technics 1200G tonearm

This TT has been out for quite awhile. Cartridge recommendations for the stock arm supplied with the 1200G would be appreciated.

I am getting one. The lower mids are beautiful and much better than the Lyra,it is not tipped forward is pretty neutral with a slight hint of warmth. might be a last cartridge. lol. great tracker

I would think a warmer sounding phono tube pre would do wonders with this cartridge. Not on a 1200G, maybe a VPI. The cadenza sounded wonderful. Great cartridge.
