Cartridge suggestions for SME Turntable

Dynavector Karat 17DX

I mirror jperry's words...I just bought a Benz Micro LP-S due to advice I got from a few audiophiles.

Here's a review:https://www.avsa.co.za/benz-micro-lp-s-mr-heart-and-soul/
It weighs 16.4 grams.
Good luck!

Effective mass of your SME tonearm maybe ? 

Dear @vinylshadow : I owned the LP-S and is very good performer, so this characteristic is not under questioning in any way but I want to tell you that the Anna, Etna or My Sonic Lab Platinum are way superior to any of all the other advises here. 

The Etna and Anna are a no-regret and no-come back cartridges. You will never turn around your face with any other cartridges.

But cartridges is up to any one of us and very personal choice.

Some of the carts recommended here are over $5k
Would have thought the gain structure of the phono amp chain is an important factor in choosing a cart. Cant figure what SUT/head amp you have, I believe your preamp has MM input? DAGOGO had a good review on a Benz Ebony TRS matched with a Shindo preamp.
