1st cartridge upgrade on 1st TT

Does your phono stage support the lower gain of a Moving Coil cartridge or are you trying to stay within a certain output similar to a MM?

Would be helpful to see your system. There is a place under your UserID. @tooblue +1. 
 

Good choice for your first table also. 
 

I’m not familiar with. Cartridges in that price range. But many are… I am sure you will get lots of recommendations. But knowing your preamp and Phonostage will be very helpful… and speakers.

RP8 stick with the Rega carts. 

Not sure why anyone needs to see pictures of your turntable. 

Google is your friend.

One caveat with Rega tables is there’s not much flexibility with the VTA adjustment. You need to buy Rega spacers to help with VTA.
It’s safe to stick with a Rega cartridge but you can try and see if any good MC will fit. It’s important to match the cartridge to the arm. I’d give Upscale Audio a call to see what they usually mount on that table. 

Thanks for the responses!

Still trying to clean up and organize after the move and will post pics shortly.

@tooblue  My phonostage will support MM cartridges. But thought that as a starter, it would need to be replaced too.
