Rega planar 25/rb600 cartridge recommendations

Hello all,
I was just handed a planar 25 table with an rb 600 tonearm in minty condition. Alas, no cartridge installed. It is stock with the exception of the ja michel counterweight. Looking for cartridge recommendations. I will be using a musical fidelity lx-lps phono stage into a plinius 8100 integrated amp. Thinking denon 103, nagaoka mp 200. Also a grace if I can find one. Thanks all!

Denon low compliance MC on Rega tonearm with 9-10g effective mass?
This is not good, you need a 30g effective mass tonearm for Denon 103 for optimal performance. 

You need a mid compliance MM/MI for this tonearm. 

Which Grace are you looking for ?

I have owned a P25 for many years.  The table has almost every aftermarket mod you can put on it.  I've tried numerous cartridges on it.

Currently it has an Audio Technica AT-150MLX that works and sounds wonderful.
